We have initiated a couple of personal and “corporate” policies here. We will be boycotting PayPal due to their boycott of the good people of North Carolina. This is very easy to do, convenient alternatives exist, and making a push back example for other punk corporations interested in Californicating the country is important. Links to related articles and a source for alternatives will be set forth in our next post. But first . . .
The other change is that the Drudge Report will get less attention from us as we will be more likely to go to alternatives and directly to the sources he relies on the most (he selects stories primarily in mainstream media and is pretty predictable . Thus we will “bypass” his site as much as possible — rather than link directly from his site (which provides him income or influence) until he imparts some more conservative integrity and independence (from Trump) in his policies and stops smearing Ted Cruz. We do not claim to be unbiased and have endorsed Cruz, but we rail against conservative apostasy in an unbiased fashion with our limited resources as it comes to our attention.
As a masthead editorial in Investors Business Daily pointed out:
Unlike the mainstream press, Drudge (and Breitbart for that matter) has never pretended to be unbiased. But the site had gained credibility for being fair to conservatives. Now that long-standing credibility is increasingly under strain, and that’s a shame.
Follow the Money Trail!
Forgive our resort to Drudge style graphics but consider this article:
Breitbart (and Drudge?) Being Paid BIG Bucks for Glowing Trump Coverage?
How else to explain it… Mark Levin was scratching his aerodynamic dome all last week wondering how these two have evolved into such fervent Trumpster sites, pumping Trump’s disingenuous false narratives and slander against Ted Cruz in an increasingly biased way regarding tone and substance…
One way to make sense of it all might be a long-forgotten story that Buzzfeed and Mediaite put out last August where they had former Brietbart staffers going public with accusations that the site has been paid by the Trump campaign to ensure positive coverage (and suppression of viable rivals like Ted Cruz) from the get-go:
Here at veritaspac we find Briebart more willing to report positively about Cruz but as far as Drudge is concerned, as an antidote, we will provide a link to a new “aggregator” site more favorable to Cruz. Its name is Social News Watch. We will also remove our link to Drudge for now. Drudge is no doubt quaking in his boots. News about the alternative site is contained in this article:
Cruz calls Drudge ‘attack site’ for Trump as criticism sparks alternative site
Below is a YouTube posted commentary (via Redstate a pro-Cruz/anti-Trump site) from Michelle Malkin, from about a month ago. However calmly, she tears Drudge a new one decrying the narrative Drudge has been pumping about Cruz . Pointing out Drudge’s double standard begins at about 1’25”.
