Matt Drudge gave a very rare interview this week..
Among some money quotes:
I will go where the action is, sometimes before it’s cool to do it, that’s why I get in trouble. I make waves, I don’t surf them as I used to say. That’s not that easy in this atmosphere with so many news outlets
And:
All of these polls are always divided. Capitol Hill is divided. How can you say the airwaves or the website should not be divided. We are
Plus:
These are very hot spicy issues here. We’re into an interesting summer here. We’re only about a week into it, I’m sensing some heat. And not just from the temperature outside, I think things are heating up in many respects
Interesting to hear how the trailblazer of internet success is now riding the same highway he paved, noticing all of the bumps and intersections filled with traffic due to his own creativity and success.
A lot of people hate Matt Drudge. But he was the first blog before anyone knew what one was.. he Tweeted before Twitter.. and he was 24/7 while everyone else was just dialing up. He changed the internet at the very beginning and everyone else tried to mock his success..
And it all started with a siren that will live in infamy.
Matt Drudge speaks: News business is 'psychotic' now
