THIS S–T JUST SUCKS’: BREITBART SPOKESMAN RESIGNS OVER TRUMP BIAS AND ALLEGED ASSAULT OF REPORTER BY
Source: Inquistr
Kurt Bardella resigned Friday as spokesman for media outlet Breitbart News, and he came out swinging today against his former employer, going as far as to say he could not support an organization that lies and isnt backing its reporter, Michelle Fields. Fields was allegedly assaulted by Donald Trumps campaign manager, Corey Lewandowski, when he roughly pulled on her arm Tuesday night at a press conference in Florida, leaving bruises. Fields has since filed misdemeanor battery charges with the Jupiter Police Department, despite denials from the Trump campaign about the incident, and witnessed by reporter Ben Terris of Washington Post, the assault is currently under investigation by Jupiter police.
Not only did Bardella confirm to CNN that Breitbart News has lied, but confirmed the media outlets pro-Trump agenda, and had harsh words about the whole situation in an interview with CNNs Don Lemon.
This st just sucks.
Breitbart News reaction to the allegations and charges filed seemed to indicate that they were doubtful about the story, according to The Daily Beast release of a statement issued by Larry Solov, CEO and President of Breitbart.
Its obviously unacceptable that someone crossed a line and made physical contact with our reporter. What Michelle has told us directly is that someone grabbed her arm and while she did not see who it was, Ben Terris of The Washington Post told her that it was Corey Lewandowski. If thats the case, Corey owes Michelle an immediate apology.

(9,373 posts)I hold Breitbart (I call it not-so-Brightbart) and TMZ at about the same scummy level. Both are sleaze mongers of the worst order. So while it doesn't surprise me they care more about Donald Drumpf than a female reporter, I'm not going to lose sleep over this. I hope Fields gets a job with a real news organization that isn't owned by Rupert Murdoch.
And I have to wonder how they would have reacted had this been a male reporter.

(581 posts)video and Breitbart News denies it happens. This show to the extent that Republicans will go to deny and try to downplay attacks on people and the media. Sounds like something Putin would do in Russia. Where is the real freedoms that we should enjoy, when Breitbart News seems to hate the 1st amendment.
