The first article that came out about it, which was linked on Drudge, is at http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?hl=en&gbv=2&num=10&lr=&ft=i&cr=&safe=images&tbs=qdr%3Ay&q=cache:xayYWVqBdYUJ:http://www.reuters.com/article/2012/03/01/us-usa-politics-breitbart-idUSTRE8201AV20120301+Orson+Bean+heart+problems+site%3Areuters.com&ct=clnk
The article starts out with
“Breitbart was walking last night near his Los Angeles home when he collapsed, said his father-in-law, actor Orson Bean.
“He collapsed on the sidewalk and the paramedics were there very quickly and they couldn’t revive him,” Bean told Reuters in a phone interview.
A friend of Breitbart told Reuters he had a history of heart problems and is believed to have suffered a heart attack.”
But then later on it says:
“MEDICAL ISSUES
Amid suggestions that Breitbart had suffered a heart attack, Bean said he did not know Breitbart had any cardiac problems and the editor-in-chief of Breitbart.com declined to discuss any details about his health.
Breitbart was transported to a hospital where he was pronounced dead at 12:19 a.m. on Thursday, said Ed Winter, a spokesman for the Los Angeles Department of Coroner. An autopsy is tentatively scheduled for Friday. Winter declined to discuss any possible heart problems Breitbart might have suffered. “He had some medical issues, hadn’t seen a doctor in over a year and we don’t have his medical history yet,” Winter said.
“We have lost a husband, a father, a son, a brother, a dear friend, a patriot and a happy warrior. Andrew lived boldly, so that we more timid souls would dare to live freely and fully, and fight for the fragile liberty he showed us how to love,” a memorial page on Breitbart’s websites said. The message said Breitbart “passed away unexpectedly from natural causes.”
Now I see where the story is changing. And that’s exactly the kind of thing that raises suspicions. A lot of people have talked about how this or that person said this or that, but I have yet to see anything about his alleged heart problems that pre-dates March 1, 2012. If you see something I’d sure like to know about it so I can see it too.
According to The Associated Press Breitbart collapsed while walking near his home. A neighbor saw him fall and called paramedics, the AP quoted his father in law, Orson Bean, as saying. Bean said Breitbart had suffered from heart problems in the past.

This was March 1.
I can't find anything online the predates the current stuff talking about his health, but then again, it's hard to find anything predating the current stuff at all. At any rate, I don't know if his father in law was incorrectly quoted at one point or if he was confused, or?
