Full Title - "THE CONSERVATIVE PURGE BEGINS=> Apple Removes Breitbart From Their App Store"
Guest post by Joe Hoft
Let the purge begin.
Democrats are furious that Americans rejected their criminal, unethical, boring and fainting far left candidate.
And they are OUTRAGED that they do not control the flow of information anymore thanks to the internet, Facebook, Twitter, and talk radio.
So rather than win on ideas they have decided to purge the conservative websites from the marketplace of ideas.
The Apple store removed Breitbart.com from their App store recently.
If you do a search on “Breitbart” or “BreitbartNews” this is what you get.
They’ve removed it.
Breitbart had 45 million monthly readers last month.
They’re too much of a threat.

I’ve been watching this on Twitter and there was a boycott of Apple and Kellogg’s products being organized.
Maybe the app was pulled and replaced because of growing backlash?
For the record...
BREITBART IS AVAILABLE... in the iTunes App store
Maybe they already uncensored it?
I just checked, and (also) saw the app...for the first time.
The reviews weren’t good, so I checked to see if it was lefties posting negative reviews. Not so much...looks like the app itself has some room for improvement (especially if you like to comment, etc).
The ONE thing that bugs me the most, about Breitbart’s site (and comments were made about the app, too), are the pop up ads. And, I have adblock. Still hangs up, from time to time.
I think it should be a felony to spread Fake News.
It is available. Just downloaded it. You should of checked before posting.
Frankly, neither did I. I just had a tab on my favorites bar for Breitbart in my Safari Browser and used that. Why limit what I can see to what the editors' choose as most important?
You might want to try the white-hat called startpage, uses google without the tracking and skewed results.
www.startpage.com
I’m glad to see this article! Just downloaded and installed it. The ads when viewing via browser are ridiculous!
Same here. I didn't even know there was an App for it. Safari works just fine anyway. I don't need an App to go there.
“Adblock is google and google tracks you whether you want it or not.”
==
No - Adblock is not Google-owned. At any rate, you’re constantly tracked all the time, anyway. Internet privacy is an illusion.
These high-tech companies (e.g. Facebook, Google, et al) have replaced traditional institutions like church, family, community. That's how they recruit so many secular youth, who are plied with free food, laundry, games, etc. Many of these companies in isolated enclaves.
While I'm all for pleasant working conditions, these kind of bubble environments seem unhealthy. They remind me of the French court of Versailles, which totally lost touch with reality. On the day of the French Revolution, Marie Antoinette was playing shepherdess in a make-believe farm.
Huh. I still see it.
Breitbart Apps are still on Apple. Found them easily.
************
Glad you found them ,, I didn’t check because I don’t do iTunes ,, too complicated.
me too-it costs 99 cents
So does “TheGatewayPundit” go in the “Fake News” category now? (The Breitbart app is still working on my iOS devices and is still available in the iTunes App Store).
