Two more staffers for Breitbart have resigned from the company, citing the website's pro-Donald Trump stance.
National security correspondent Jordan Schachtel and associate editor Jarrett Stepman sent their resignations to management on Monday afternoon.
"The company no longer resembles the ideals that inspired me to start writing for them three years ago. Some of us have been fighting behind the scenes against the party-line Trump propaganda for some time, but without any success, unfortunately," Schachtel said in a statement. "Breitbart News is no longer a journalistic enterprise, but instead, in my opinion, something resembling an unaffiliated media Super PAC for the Trump campaign. I signed my contract to work as a journalist, not as a member of the Donald J. Trump for President media network. As recent events have proven, there is no longer a point in trying to reform the company from within, so I must step aside with my dignity intact. I wish everyone at Breitbart the best, and hope the site can redeem the legacy of its founder under much-needed new management."

What do you say to those site who have sold out to the anti-Trump forces?
Hopefully everyone’s blinders are off as regards Fox.”
Faux News has sure worked hard to ruin their brand this political season. Here in Seattle, Medved follows Rush on talk radio and Medved is a total kook. Today he was saying that Trump was a liar to blame the violent disruptions on Sanders.
Yeah, our lying eyes for those of us who saw all the Sanders T-shirts and Communist flags.
The good news for them is every news outlet they go to will share their anti-Trump feelings... The bad news is now they're a 'dime a dozen' and will be judged only on the writing quality.
It is sad. More Bizarro World.
Well, Jordan, there are plenty of anti-Trump media outlets out there just waiting for you. Just don’t be so naive as to expect a “neutral objective” media outlet. Have fun.
First of all, only one reporter made a claim about an attack, and now four reporters have resigned.
Second, there is no video that clearly shows the reporter was lying. I've watched them all and none of them are conclusive either way. But there were eye witnesses and the parties will have their day in court.
It's been clear for a while the Brietbart management is biased toward Trump, and Breitbart commenters try to shout down anyone who isn't for Trump.
I used to be an avid reader of Breitbart but it's become less of a place of interest for conservatives who don't back the NYC casino owner.
No. Because when every dissenting voice has been shouted down, there will have been no discourse, no discussion of issues nor solutions, just shouting. Mobs shout. More echo chambers just mean more mobs.
Even if Trump gets all the delegates, Cruz can still win at the convention by changing the rules. /Sarcasm
Because Trump has been sooooooo honest when story after story is telling you he is saying something different behind closed doors than he is to his adoring voters....at least on the positions he has not already caved on during this short primary. Your blinders are showing and this is what I do not get about his supporters.....he has already told you his words are worthless but you guys seem to think he is gold and you spout Lyin' Ted school.
Cruz has done some seriously stupid things in the last week and will not win but at least it is not a massive rope-a-dope. Unlike Trump I know what Cruz stands for and know he has stood up and fought Washington. I can not tell what Trump stands for today will be what he does tomorrow and that is just stupid to vote for.
Well, Jordan and Jarrett, don’t let the door hit ya where the Good Lord split ya!
Not if they supported Fields.
Cruz joined Washington in siding with the Chicago thugs by attacking
Trump and Trump supporters right to gather for a peaceful rally.
So if you don’t agree you can go to one of the multiple anti-Trump echo chambers out there on the right starting with National Review. Straw man.
“I wonder if Rush is all in for Cruz.”
You forgot the sarcasm tag. We all know Rush is whoring for Cruz.
So, if you don't agree, perhaps you can have an intelligent conversation with someone. That is what I said. You are the one insisting on the 'safe zone' of an echo chamber there, snowflake.
That’s for them to figure out
It's beginning to look like a pattern whose name cannot be spoken. Shades of the Stalinist 30s.
Yes! I should have put in parentheses (hyper sarcasm alert)!
“So, if you don’t agree, perhaps you can have an intelligent conversation with someone. That is what I said. You are the one insisting on the ‘safe zone’ of an echo chamber there, snowflake.”
So why don’t you follow your own rule and have an intelligent conversation, cupcake.
