[Twitter Report] Breitbart Sitting on Anti-Cruz Story till After NH Vote

Two days ago Breitbart's Milo Yiannopoulos and Allum Bokhari (the latter's twitter page linked up above) began teasing an "Explosive" Cruz scandal that was supposed to post imminently on Breitbart.com.

According to Allum Bokhari, it would reveal the 'true face' of Ted Cruz and would be "much worse" than the Ben Carson-fraud fiasco currently ongoing. When asked if it would destroy the Cruz campaign, Allum replied he "couldn't say for sure." When asked about the initial delay, he replied that Breitbart is being very careful with the information due to its seriousness, but that the "wait was worth it."

At first I thought maybe Allum and Milo were simply trolling their readership due to the silence for more than 24 hours, but it appears the article really is coming and is indeed quite serious. According to Allum the article was held up in editorial, and now updates his readers with the following:

Allum Bokhari ‏@LibertarianBlue 2h Been told it's a few more days before we can drop the new Cruz goss. Nothing I can do :(

@6ae025af2132401 can't come out for a few days. My hands are tied, and not in the fun way. :(

Allum has been posting 1 or 2 stories a day with no such similar delays, so it appears Breitbart is holding onto the story till after the vote in New Hampshire, probably to avoid accusations of trying to influence the election.

Other than the tweets about it being an "explosive" scandal, Milo and Allum have been entirely mum on the contents of the story, and haven't responded to multiple questions regarding whether Breitbart editors like Ben Shapiro may be trying to suppress it. Nevertheless, there is no indication the story will not be breaking at this point.

That’s a farce! It’s all a farce with him look at his connections

[wastedyears]

I don’t know why Milo would be involved with this.

[FreeReign]

... is as fake as the day is long. Probably something around Matthew 6:5 about that, but it's been a while, and I might be forgetting the exact place. For people who grew up watching this disgusting fake piety and humility, it's a yuuugggge red flag. Total down-vote.

Okay, got it.

I hope its not the Monkey story.

If it IS the monkey story, we are all screwed.

after the article proves to be a giant nothing burger... ;)
*******************************************************
I think the little twit has a “nothing burger”. He’s sounding like Glenn Beck when Beck says he will have something EARTHSHAKING “next week”.

electrifying the body of Christ

Isn't it bad enough they crucified Him on the Cross?

Robert Mercer?

Trump doesn’t oppose the Oligarchy, he just wants new Oligarchs.

“When did Free Republic turn into a VoteHillary site? Seems like its full of Democrats all of the sudden.”

You noticed that, too?

Seems like a lot of posters now leave conservative values outside the door.

[Sideshow Bob]

I doubt Cruz's public persona is near the truth.

And I have no doubt whatsoever that Trump is as big of an ass in private as he is in public.

*snort* hahahahahaha!

[heights]

We should have known better.

[Greetings_Puny_Humans]

All he did was tease the story. Allum appears to be the one principally in charge of the story.

[diamond6]

“Breitbart is starting to remind me of the Democratic Underground with a different competing agenda. No critical thinking; pure emotion and bitterness driving people to mindless fanaticism. Acting just like liberals. You can see it here also.”

Amen.

Conservative values and past liberal positions no longer matter.

This may be the stupidest post ever, even for you.

You did not read Breitbart's tortured defense of Cruz's lies about immigration and TPP.

[Greetings_Puny_Humans]

So people that express their Christianity in public as somehow terrible people.

Well I didn't say that, but now that you mention it:

"And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward. But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly." (Mat 6:5-6)

[M Kehoe]

I say post the story NOW.

I'm a Cruz supporter.

5.56mm

[MNlurker]

Milo is a yuuge Trump supporter...but hey if there’s fire with the smoke they’re putting out then all the power to him.

I like the guy’s take no prisoners take no shit attitude.

[corbe]

You did not read Breitbart's tortured defense of Cruz's lies about immigration and TPP.

No PUNY, I didn't read 50 Shades of Gray, either.

The real truth is is that Cruz supporters are so sensitive that they interpret any article that isn’t anti-Trump and pro-Cruz to be evidence of extreme bias and corruption.
