Mark Levin says people should "lay off" their criticism and accusations regarding Matt Drudge and "The Drudge Report."

“Another friend of mine: Matt Drudge.  I would encourage you to lay off Matt Drudge.  Matt Drudge has done so much good for the country, so much good for journalism,” Levin said on Friday’s show.

Levin was discussing the recent attacks of Matt Drudge’s website, “The Drudge Report,” which some have criticized as being too pro-Romney at times and too anti-Gingrich at others.

“Some days he’s got links on there that are more about one candidate than another - so be it; who cares?  He’s not some…he’s not taking sides in the election; he’s not taking sides in the Republican Party.  I know him extremely well; he’s a good man.”

“And, the mainstream media hates his guts - so, just keep all that in mind.  He provides an enormous service, I think, to us. So, I would just lay off him.”
