[Daily Caller] In a rare appearance on talk radio on Friday, Matt Drudge declared that President Trump "has saved the media.""I’m getting a little bit nervous about the media situation. Do you know, the media was near death. The New York Times was hanging on the short hairs. Do you know Vanity Fair was going under. CNN barely had a fraction," Drudge said during an appearance on Michael Savage’s radio show.
"Trump has saved the media. Record, record ratings now because the opposition is consolidating. They’re following every bouncing ball. People actually believe that Trump is a Russian agent, this is the drugged ones."
Drudge, who has operated the Drudge Report since 1995, rarely makes public appearances, but he appeared on Savage’s show to celebrate the conservative host’s 75th birthday.
