It’s smart for both of them to be independent.
Good news is that:
1. Mr. Schiller lost his NPR job and his Aspen Institute job
2. The other NPR hack sucking up to the Muslim Brotherhood is on administrative leave and will most likely “resign” shortly
3. Mrs. Schiller lost her bonus and now her CEO gig
Who the F*** cares?
Am I correct in assuming TalkingPointsMemo.com is a leftist rag????
And if so, TPM is doing nothing more than trying to create controversy between two conservatives???
Leftwing smoke and mirrors designed to divert attention from the real story. Breitbart responded to this on Hugh Hewitt’s show yesterday:
HH: Andrew, how come James O’Keefe didn’t debut this blockbuster with you?
AB: Well, he didn’t debut his unions gone wild-New Jersey story with me, either. And there’s a strong reason for that. I see how the left behaves. I see how Media Matters and John Podesta behave. And they’ve tried to create a wedge between us to make the story not about the story, and what James was able to catch on NPR, but about James and Andrew, and how they work together. And the first response from Eric Boehlert and Media Matters was about, is Breitbart not working with O’Keefe? Well, I’ve certainly talked to him about it. I was certainly aware of what he did. I certainly gave him advice on how he should handle this. And it comports with my advice on ACORN. And that was ubiquity mattered. We could not break the ACORN story on a site called Biggovernment.com. It had to have ubiquity. So we went to Fox News, we went to every news organization possible, and we put it on YouTube. I told James, you put this on YouTube, not on proprietary Breitbart software, because you have to become legitimized as an independent reporter in order for this, your project, and your desires to change the media, and to report stories that the mainstream media won’t report. And so I stepped back, and I watched him break the story, and I come in so I don’t become the story, because this story’s too important to allow for it to be diverted into selectively edited video. And all the other propaganda points that you hear, or you know, or the attacks on me, why are you working with Breitbart, why is O’Keefe working with Breitbart, why is Breitbart working with O’Keefe? We needed this story to stand on its own.

Maybe he is not a fan of Big Gay parties.
O’Keefe is independent.
I’m sorry but this is just tooooo silly. We have huge issues and problems right now in this country and why some conservative exposer didn’t give an “exclusive” to another conservative news outlet is NOT BREAKING NEWS.
Let’s keep our eye on the ball folks.
The quality of post replies is going down hill. Any post about O’keefe’s expose’s MUST include a pic of Hanna Giles in order to meet our standards.
It simply better to be spread out and compartmentalize so the left do not have one target to shoot at
...multiple independent units coming at the left at different angles is best ...
the Left will go after James O'Keefe over NPR ...
Breitbart took a hit with that Sherod thing... he refiting too get back in the fight...
Breitbart not in position to start taking shots if he was teamed with O'Keefe right now
Look at the Tea Party...it is so strong because it was not one group but a movement...
It the reason the Left wants to paint the Tea Party as one group driven by Palin or Beck or the Koch brothers or whoever...that makes it one target to take out
You know Super Heroes like James O’keefe lead such controversial existences. Just pick up any random graphic novel and you’ll see. If the left press finds any more fissures in the Conservative Movement, we’ll probably sweep the next elections with veto proof majorities (not that we’ll need them) in both Chambers, and 2/3 of the state legislatures.
Who cares? They both have plenty of success between themselves. And as James builds his business, it’s smart for him to take charge of his own content. It’s nothing against Breitbart.
If this is the best the Talking Points Memo flying monkeys can come up with, George Soros is going to want his money back.
