I rarely go to Breitbart - so much junk running in background. When I click on an article, system freezes to allow the ad crap to load.

This has been a long, ongoing problem with the site.

Anyone else have this problem with Breitbart?

YES, I tried twice, but couldn’t even get to Breitbart. Thanks for calling attention to this.

I just don’t go there. Locks up my tablet every time. Death to the advertising industry.

I have the same problem. The computer will freeze, then the little box will come up telling me there is a problem and windows will check for a solution which it never finds. Then the page will shut down.

The same thing also happens with the Washington Times. They must be using the same company to run their website. It almost seems like their trying to emulate the online British newspapers but they just can’t get it to work. I’ve given up going to Breitbart and the Washington Times which is a shame because after the Free Republic they were my favorite sites.
