“Today I informed the management at Breitbart News of my immediate resignation,” the reporter at the center of the controversy at the conservative site told BuzzFeed News, the week after Trump’s campaign manager allegedly grabbed her.

Breitbart reporter Michelle Fields and editor-at-large Ben Shapiro are resigning from the company over the site’s handling of Donald Trump’s campaign manager’s alleged assault on Fields, BuzzFeed News has learned...

Breitbart is Trump’s propaganda outlet. “The Donald” has people hypnotized

That irrelevant... was the charge she made true or fault?...if she making fault charges against anyone I don't care if is it Hillary, Bernie or Cruz .. she need to be terminated.. so are the charges true of false?

[onona]

It’s amazing how the networks won’t blast this damning video after making the false allegations all week.

I believe the word you are looking for is "collusion"

Tioga, can we get this word collusion in the word of the day queue ?

[mbrfl]

Did you see the video?

clap - clap - clap!

This should end Ben Shapiro's career as some kind of "conservative" prognosticator. I would watch how his marriage fares as well, as "white knights" for female reporters often indicate something deeper may be going on. I really hope not, as he has a small child. Ben's fall from grace has been very sad to behold.

Michelle Fields should face CRIMINAL charges for filing a false police report in Jupiter, FL. In addition, FoxNews really needs to remove her from circulation, as she is beyond damaged goods.

Other "pundits" who has disgraced themselves in #GrabGate have been Katie Pavlich, Dana Loesch (no surprise...a serial liar and former radical liberal and now Beck stooge), Twitchy, Townhall (Salem Media rags both), BuzzFeed, WaPo and far too many others to count, mostly rabid CruzBots.

They resigned at midnight on a Sunday. They know this week is going to be really bad for them.

There is Video!

How does she (and FOX News) explain the Police report where Fists, Feet, and Teeth are used as weapons during the attack?

FOX led their shows Friday evening with the story of a corroborating Video (which was anything but) from C-SPAN as they sensationalized the story with the Fists, Feet, and Teeth from the Police Report.

Dana Loesch is fired up on Twitter tonight, linking to her old lawsuit against the widow of Andrew Breitbart.

Predictably.

[RushIsMyTeddyBear]

He’s exposing who IS conservative.......or globalists.

Yes. The video is far from exoneration.

Did you see this one?

What is very clear is Trump is lying about Fields and trying to destroy her. It is Clintonian.

I see no arm grabbing in any video.

Exactly.

Never happened.

[montag813]

They did the right thing staying away from an organization that is Trump’s mouthpiece.

Oh STFU. You know damn well Fields was lying (as she has many times in the past) and Shapiro was complicit in promoting those lies, with his Trump-hatred the driving force.

[BigEdLB]

Delicious and diabolical. Interesting to see what Shapiro says on the radio tomorrow. KRLA 870 6-9 Pacific time for those who have I heart Radio or live in LA.

When will Tellis, the ‘witness’, resign from the Washington Post?

[Roger Kaputnik]

LOL! Very nice.

[Rodney Dangerfield]

I volunteer to convert Miss Fields to becoming s true conservative.

Throw in Katie Pavlich.

I’ll give them a 2 for the price of 1 deal.

[TTFX]

LOL Shapiro's statement is self-contradictory. He says Breitbart News chairman Steve Bannon...

"abandoned and undercut his own reporter, Breitbart News’ Michelle Fields, in order to protect Trump’s bully campaign manager, Corey Lewandowski, who allegedly assaulted Michelle.”

Ok, so Bannon is acting to protect Corey from the consequences of an alleged event, in Shapiro's own words. So if the alleged event didn't happen, Steve Bannon isn't protecting anyone from anything, in which case Shapiro's reasons for resigning all disappear.

Is Shapiro competing for some sort of SJW award? What the f is this?

[frnewsjunkie]

Yes, and I’m shocked at how many and how deep it goes. We would not have known, but for Donald Trump. Some who I thought were okay people... are NOT. Every day more keep coming out of the trash heap.

[unsycophant]

On a different thread here, someone pointed out that Katie Pavlich appears to have deleted many of her tweets criticizing Trump, Breitbart, Lewandowski. Last week she was matching Shapiro & Fields tweet-for-tweet.

I believe Shapiro has also deleted some of his more obnoxious & wrong comments.

Midnight on a Sunday = 1998 Clinton admin!
