The Drudge Report used to be a source of reliable articles that lots of us would turn to several times during the day.  But not anymore.  It has become an "amalgamater" or packager of Left-leaning news, and just another outlet for "Fake News" that is to be avoided.  Matt Drudge seems to be long gone—or he's gone over to the dark side.

Today's headlines include:

DOMINION VICTORY STUNS MEDIA

$787 MILLION APOLOGIES FROM FOX

THE COST OF TRUMP LIES[2]

Two of Fox's biggest night-time shows—that of Tucker Carlson and Sean Hannity—ducked the story altogether last night.  And yes, litigation is settled all the time, inter alia, to avoid bad publicity.  But Rupert Murdoch's cowardly settlement opens the door to more litigation.[3]  And it may have a chilling effect on Fox's reporting, as the critical 2024 elections draw nearer.

Murdoch has never hidden his Leftist leanings, or those of other members of his immediate family.[4]. But Fox has become the last bastion of pro-Trump major news, which actually reports on the Biden Family Crime Syndicate's latest machinations.  There should be zero doubts that Brain "Addled" Joe Biden is beholden to China's Xi Jinping, having received money from China.  Or that China—which has given us Covid and its mutations—is on the cusp of overrunning Taiwan and launching World War III in earnest, the war to end all wars, certainly in our lifetimes.[5]

Hence, the Murdochs—who are Australians—may rue the day that they became American traitors, in ways they never imagined fully.
