Breitbart employees threaten exit over Yiannopoulos

Employees at Breitbart News are reportedly prepared to leave the company if controversial senior editor Milo Yiannopoulos is not fired.

Another senior editor at the publication told Washingtonian Monday that "at least a half dozen" employees are prepared to leave to organization because of remarks Yiannopoulos made about pedophilia that gained attention this weekend.

“The fact of the matter is that there’s been so many things that have been objectionable about Milo over the last couple of years, quite frankly. This is something far more sinister,” the senior editor said.

“If the company isn’t willing to act, there are at least half a dozen people who are willing to walk out over it.”

And more unnamed sources. Why doesn’t the half dozen give their names if ready to take a stand?

The Left is laughing

Hopefully, Bannon will make a phone call.

Milo is not a pedophile. He's a pervert...but not a pedophile.

Sounds like bull$hit.

Milo is the star right now at Breitbart. He’s on the leading edge of conservative chaos.

I am really convinced this is a very small-scale test run for a plan to bring down our President. It seems to be working as designed.

“Michelle Fields, part 2.”

She was a drama queen. So is Milo (cough). I like Milo, but it wouldn’t surprise me if Milo has a number of skeletons in his closet. This is much worse than the Fields fiasco.

I agree. Milo is a homosexual so it’s easy to find things he’s said in the past that will inflame conservatives. As a gay man and conservative, he is a threat to the Progressives, so it was just matter of a few days after the Bezerkley riots before they’d make their move on him.

I’m with those opposed to pedophilia. But I need to know more about this before I’m in support of canning Milo. He said his words were manipulated by careful editing of his interview. I need to see the real interview and the so-called edited version before I decide his dismissal is warranted.

In these times where outrageous deeds are being committed against the right, I wouldn’t be surprised if his claim turned out to be true. But trust me, if I decide he’s lying to us all, then I’m all for pink-slipping him.

Now that I think about it, I could have saved myself a lot of keystrokes by saying “until I know more, it’s too early for me to rush to judgement”.

Dag, I did it again.

At least 6 employees. How many work at Breitbart?

He may have been a victim of child sex abuse (most gays are) but saying a 13 year old is capable of consent with an adult...that’s a bit much.

He is a libertarian. Legalizing drugs, prostitution, and perhaps dropping all age of consent laws is acceptable to him.

He disavowed these statements, and claimed the tapes were edited.

He has a lot of enemies who want to crush him.
