Drudge’s life was a common man till the time Drudge Report came into prominence. Around 1989 Drudge took up a job in the gift shop of CBS studios where he was apparently privy to some inside gossips.

This led him to form a Drudge Report which he sent as an email to his friends. The report was then sent as an email newsletter and posted to alt.showbiz.gossip Usenet forum where it was loved and also ridiculed. Eventually the newsletter got into political gossip and moved from email to the Web as its primary distribution mechanism.
