10 Totally Fake Stories Bannered By Drudge This Year
Matt Drudge continues to capture the attention of the polical media “because of his brand recognition and, in 2012, because he has
a direct line to the Romney campaign.”
But Drudge has used this position to continually mislead the public and the media. Tuesday night’s “
bombshell” was just one of many recent examples. Here are 10 completely fake banner stories by Drudge in 2012:
Horse shit, these are not fake stories, but literary techniques that emphasize a narrative, and all taken from actual facts.
Drudge does not write these articles himself, he simply links to them and lets the readers decide what is true, which just drives your libtards nuts, lol.
1. Obama proposed to “repeat” auto bailout for every industry in America
Obama just didn’t say that. He said he wanted to bring back manufacturing jobs to every industry. You can read
the transcript.
That is Drudge's interpretation of the facts of the matter, and not a lie or a wrong story.
2. Obama “admits fabricating” his girlfriend in his memoir
As the Atlantic reported: “Obama is
clear at the start of the book that certain characters are composites, writing, ‘For the sake of compression, some of the characters that appear are composites of people I’ve known, and some events appear out of precise chronology.’”
So you admit that Drudge was right. But turning it into a false claim is something you are accusing Drudge of doing, too, right? That is hypocrisy which Drudge is not doing. Next
3. New evidence that Obama was “born in Kenya”
It was actually just
an error in a pamphlet produced by his literary agent’s assistant.
So OBama is not responsible for what his publishers put out?
roflmao, no but Drudge is responsible if he uses it? roflmao
4. Obama is giving out free phones
The “
Obama phone” is really a program started by Reagan and expanded by Bush that provides subsidized phone service to low-income Americans.
But Obama used it to fuel a get out the vote drive, dear, which was Drudges point, not who started the program, for crying out loud.
5. Condoleezza Rice at the top of Romney’s list for Vice President
In response to the Drudge Report banner, which recieved wide-spread attention in the press, Rice said that “all of her previous statements denying interest in being Romney’s vice presidential pick ‘still stand.’” In a June interview with CBS, Rice said “
there is no way I would do this… I don’t see myself in any way in elected office.”
People do a lot of speculating about who will be VP and Drudge reported on one such case. So he cant be accurate about anything else because of that?
Well, he go the blue dress right, didnt he? roflmao
6. Sherrif Joe Arpaio has uncovered evidence that Obama’s birth certificate is fake
When Obama's people put out a composite graphic of a birth certificate in answer to demands for his long form Birth Certificate, that was misleading and Arpaio got it right. The WH later put up a photo of the correct LFBC.
7. David Petreaus under consideration for Romney’s Vice President
It’s unclear how President Obama would know the internal deliberations of the Romney campaign. Nevertheless, the White House “
flatly denied” the report, stating “such an assertion has never been uttered by the president.” A Petraeus spokesman said “as he has stated clearly numerous times before,
he will not seek elected office.”
YAWN
8. Biden proposed a “global tax”
As the Hill noted at the time, Biden was referring to a tax “under which the American government would impose
a domestic tax on American companies that were shipping jobs — or profits — overseas to avoid paying taxes.” The Obama administration regularly discusses the proposal.
So Drudge was right again.
Thank you for keeping things so plainly supportive of Drudges reputation!
He is one of the few bonafide journalists left.
9. Obama had time to meet with a pirate but not Netanyahu
In September, Drudge suggested that Obama found time to meet with a pirate but not Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. The photo was actually
taken in May 2009 for the White House Correspondents Dinner.
Just an illustration, not a claim that Obama met a pirate instead of Netneyahu, dummy.
10. Explosive new video of “race speech” will expose Obama
The “new” video was a speech from 2007 that was
widely reported at the time. The only new footage was of Obama
criticizing the federal government’s response to Katrina.
So Drudge did accurately quote Obama, thanks!
In addition, Drudge regularly links to internet conspiracy websites, including those that promote the idea that 9/11 was
an “inside job.”

Well, every once in while even a blind Alex Jones disinformant gets a nut. Why not use it?
See that is the problem with you Marxist ideologues; Truth can come from any number of sources, even the Devil on a cold night.
