If conservatives are so upset with Drudge, why is he doing so well?

The Drudge Report is the third largest online publisher in the U.S. according to the June rankings at Similar Web.  In spite of reports that conservatives are upset with him, Matt Drudge’s rankings stay consistent. The top ranking liberal site is Raw Story, but they come in 47th do Drudge’s 3rd, bested by Breitbart and Daily Caller. The question is why no liberal site ever comes close to the success of the Drudge Report.

Drudge netted a combined page view count of 1,189,670,000 for the month and held its position as the #3 media publisher in the country. Drudge was bested only by MSN and Disney, and joins Time Warner and Google as the Top 5 for a second consecutive month. All five of these media offerings eclipsed 1 billion desktop and mobile domestic page views for the month.

In the month of June alone, Drudge’s homepage raked in a staggering 1,189,670,000 combined page views.

Despite the best efforts from conservatives who have recently angledto launch a #BoycottDrudge movement in response to what many have perceived as flaws in Drudge’s editorial decisions, the numbers indicate that the media giant is as influential as ever.

    Upset…??? Don’t make me laugh…
    The idiots declared porn a health emergency in the reddest most religious most porn watchin state of the union…
    They say they’re pro life right up until they force you to birth that fetus, then kick you to the curb…
    They claim to be fiscal conservatives but waste millions on ridiculous congressional hearings that go nowhere
    They claim to honor the Constitution but spend their entire careers trying to repeal half the protections (except the 2nd)

    Anyone else see a pattern…???

    Drudge, proof positive that some of our species is devolving.

    “…no liberal site ever comes close to the success of the Drudge Report.”
    Have faith Alan. That’s like saying the drug dealers on the street are doing better than your local pharmacist. While it might be true, it hardly represents what medicine was created for.
