If she really filed a police report, she may be in trouble.

Video now proves that Fields exaggerated the story for some strange reason.

Nothing 'strange' about it.......................

They are acting as if it is Breitbart’s fault ad these people are victims.

Breitbart should have FIRED THEM rather than let them resign over this, because now they are acting as if Breitbart is at fault.

SHE made up the story, when the videos proved her wrong then things got weird with people deleting “tweets” they had made and acting like it did not happen

They could have ruined the Breitbart brand for something this stupid.

I can even accept that she was initially mistaken about who grabbed her arm, but a clarification would have fixed it. Instead, as usual, it is the cover-up that makes it worse.

It's true, Ben was the only one at Breitbart, not on the Trump bandwagon.

Joins Trump haters, Rush Limbaugh, Mark Levin.

The writing was on the wall after he wrote he'd never vote for Trump.

Good. Hopefully no self respecting organization will hire them. Her behavior is so inappropriate and unprofessional.

Shame does not exist with these folks. They’ll be at the NY Times by lunch.

Gee Ben wanted Breitbart to be more supportive of the lying Fields

Good riddance. Just because you are a so called reporter doesn’t give you a pass

Beck is claiming that Trump bought off Breitbart. But Beck is unhinged

Ben Shapiro on Donald Trump in 2011. What has made him such a Trump hater now?

Accurate headline here:

“Fields and Ben Shapiro Resign after Breitbart continues to shill for Trump vs. the Truth.”

This needs to be sent to all major networks demanding an on air apology... Same with all the newspapers that covered it.

The video really looks like it was Lewandowski who grabbed the reporters arm to get her away from Trump.

Why would Trump's people deny this? The coverup is worse than the action.

First it was just an arm grab. Now he “threw her on the ground”? B.S.

Read Shapiro's full statement below.


 

As a close personal friend and mentee of Andrew Breitbart’s, it saddens me tremendously to announce that as of 9:00 p.m. Pacific Time, I have resigned from Breitbart News as editor-at-large. I met Andrew Breitbart when I was seventeen years old and remained his friend until his tragic death; I signed on with Breitbart News two weeks before Andrew’s death because I believed in his mission.

I am proud of what we accomplished in the years following his death, fighting back against the leftist media and debunking the left’s key narratives. I have many good friends at Breitbart News, including editor-in-chief Alex Marlow and editor-at-large John Nolte, and I admire CEO Larry Solov for his dedication to ensuring a financial future for Andrew’s widow, Susie, and his four children.

Andrew built his life and his career on one mission: fight the bullies. But Andrew’s life mission has been betrayed. Indeed, Breitbart News, under the chairmanship of Steve Bannon, has put a stake through the heart of Andrew’s legacy. In my opinion, Steve Bannon is a bully, and has sold out Andrew’s mission in order to back another bully, Donald Trump; he has shaped the company into Trump’s personal Pravda, to the extent that he 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. I spoke with Michelle the night after the incident. She told me her story. That story was backed by audiotape, eyewitness testimony from The Washington Post’s Ben Terris, physical bruises, and video tape.

Both Lewandowski and Trump maligned Michelle in the most repulsive fashion. Meanwhile, Breitbart News not only stood by and did nothing outside of tepidly asking for an apology, they then attempted to abandon Michelle by silencing staff from tweeting or talking about the issue. Finally, in the ultimate indignity, they undermined Michelle completely by running a poorly-evidenced conspiracy theory as their lead story in which Michelle and Terris had somehow misidentified Lewandowski.

This is disgusting. Andrew never would have stood for it. No news outlet would stand for it.

Nobody should.

This truly breaks my heart. But, as I am fond of saying, facts don’t care about your feelings, and the facts are undeniable: Breitbart News has become precisely the reverse of what Andrew would have wanted. Steve Bannon and those who follow his lead should be ashamed of themselves.

Read Fields's full statement below.

Today I informed the management at Breitbart News of my immediate resignation. I do not believe Breitbart News has adequately stood by me during the events of the past week and because of that I believe it is now best for us to part ways.
