Conservative Anti-Establishment Journalist Was a Thorn in Their Side Washington Post Reports "FOX News Kicks Drudge Out..." (Washington, D.C.) The left-leaning Washington establishment is celebrating today over the exit of Matt Drudge and his show, "The Drudge Report" on FOX News Network. The innovative Internet journalist has broken and reported many stories about government corruption over the last several years. It should thus come as no surprise that Judicial Watch Chairman Larry Klayman was a frequent guest on Drudge's television show. Unlike some in the media establishment, Drudge is not afraid, for fear of retaliation, to be seen with anti-establishment leaders willing to fight the corrupt Clinton Administration and other law-breaking government officials. "The ‘Left' and establishment types in Washington are breaking out the champagne bottles over Drudge's departure, as they obviously feel more comfortable with Newt Gingrich, Geraldine Ferraro, Eleanor Clift, Dick Morris, Al D'Amato, and Ellen Ratner as political commentators on the FOX News Network. FOX has been innovative and Roger Ailes has been a genius; however, if they lose sight of their conservative, libertarian, anti-government corruption base, the network's raison d'etre will be lost. That is why the Washington Post and others are rejoicing today. Let us hope the celebration is short lived," stated Judicial Watch Chairman and General Counsel Larry Klayman. |
