Drudge first received national attention in 1996 when he broke the news that Jack Kemp would be Republican Bob Dole's running mate in the 1996 presidential election.
Drudge had refused to go on air, charging Fox News with censorship when the network prevented him from showing photos of surgery on a fetus (not related to abortion, though Drudge is Pro-Life).
However, Drudge has since drawn criticism for posting this, as he failed to note that the photo was eight years old when he posted it, and that although Drudge referred to O'Brien as a "CNN Anchor," she was not working for CNN at the time the photo was taken.
Drudge is the author of The Drudge Report, the widely read Internet website that focuses on political news and the business of Hollywood, where he exposed the Monica Lewinsky scandal to the world and scooped Newsweek.
Drudge was raised in Takoma Park, Maryland, where he was a "loner" and a news junkie, a kid who grew up with talk radio as company.
Drudge's declared aim is to give "the American people" the information he believes to be correct or important, and to revolutionize the media industry with a breath of fresh, young air.
