[Twitter Report] Breitbart Sitting on Anti-Cruz Story till After NH Vote
Breitbart Twitter ^ | 02/04/2016 | Twitter

Posted on 02/04/2016 1:03:54 PM PST by Greetings_Puny_Humans

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.

> I say post the story NOW.

Agreed, all dirty laundry needs to be dealt with, and why deprive the voters in NH of any relevant information ?

Funny, Fox News didn't seem to mind the timing of releasing the story about W's DWI a week before the general in 2000.

Ted Cruz is a dedicated, hard working, goal oriented Bull Dozer.

People like that make enemies because they cannot be bought off or scared off.

He has some breath alright. A pee-pee puffer for certain. Kind of dangerous with those buck teeth of his.

“Difference is Trump isn�€™t claiming to be lily white clean like cruz is.”

Your post is interesting. Can you provide a link where Cruz is “claiming to be lily white clean”?

I pledge to vote Cruz if Trump is not the nominee, but I’ll hold my nose.

Cruz will not be dropping out.

There is no story. Only dishonest servants of your Daddy Satan trying to fake one.

I am hopelessly in love with Milo.

Sadly, he's gay.

I couldn’t stand it when Beck played this game and I can’t stand Breitbart doing it, either. Thing is I loved and much admired Breitbart but that site isn’t him. I’m about done with that group the same as I dumped Beck and his work. As the say— make one or get off the pot.

It’s especially annoying stringing along during an election, this isn’t jacks and bubble gum. It’s damn serious.

I heard a rumor Cruz cheated on his bar exam. Not confirmed.

Neither Beck, nor Breitbart are playing anything.

This story is a total ruse or Greetings_Puny_Humans would never have posted it.

Greetings_Puny_Humans is just an ignorant schemer.

On this guy's Twitter account he says he's an avowed liberal.

I didn't know Breitbart hired liberals, but still, where is your next scoop going to come from....du?

Ben Shapiro may be trying to suppress it. ??
Shapiro hates Trump, and this story would probably help Trump.

It's a joke for stupid people who don't read his articles.
