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."

“I wonder if Rush is all in for Cruz.”
You forgot the sarcasm tag. We all know Rush is whoring for Cruz.
Can’t ya’ll make up your mind?
What are you even talking about safe zones?
Your comment was that Breitbart was an echo chamber in a not favorable way as if this was so terrible and there were no anti-Trump sites. You are indeed changing the subject.
>> They got out of the echo chamber Breitbart is becoming <<
What’s with that “becoming” thing?
I think the Breitbart site’s reportorial distortions — especially as evidenced by their flagrant use of “click bait” headlines — have been on full display for at least three or four months.
Furthermore, anybody who had followed the late Andrew Breitbart and had read his book clearly will understand how appalled he would be by the site’s recent decline into banal idolatry, metaphysical madness and journalistic malpractice.
I use to be a 'Rush' cultist... Until my father died, I would give him the Limbaugh letter...for father's day. I have made it in to the 'Rush show' a couple of times... Snerdley has the most awesome beautiful laugh... Yes, I made him laugh... One of my calls was in reference to the liberal Glenn returning to space... I told Snerdley that NASA was back to experimenting on rats in space again.... But Rush was quick and I was not allowed to say that on air.
Rush turned me off cold when he read the NR piece by that liar Elliot Abrams, against Newt, back in 2012... Right before the Florida primary... See before Rush I was a C-Spam junkie... loved the 'special orders' especially when Duncan Hunter spoke... and got a big kick out of Bob Dornan... His election loss was my first introduction into the corruption of the GOPe.
By the way I cannot find that Elliot Abrams lie in the NR online.. it appears to have been wiped off cyber memory.
Cucks out!
Good.
Breitbart is no longer journalism but propaganda.
Bought & paid for by DT no doubt. Poor Andrew.
To convict you of assault and battery, the district attorney must prove the following four elements beyond a reasonable doubt:
1. That you committed a touching, no matter how slight.
2. That you committed the touching intentionally. This element can be inferred by your conduct.
3. That the touching was harmful or offensive. Massachusetts law states that a harmful touching is contact with an individual that is physically harmful or potentially physically harmful. An offensive touching is a touching that amounts to an affront of a person’s integrity.
4. That the touching was committed without justification or excuse. For instance, a justification is when a person engages in contact sports, or when someone submits to an examination by a doctor. An excuse is touching that occurs when you make contact with someone by accident; such as when you are riding in a subway car and you accidentally bump into them.
I don’t visit that often, because all the stuff popping in and up and the ads overwhelm my bandwidth and I have to wait for the page to finish loading before I can read it for all the bouncing around. Because my visits to the site are limited, it has only seemed to be a progression culminating of late. Apparently I missed the earlier and more full development. I stand corrected.
Amen! I’ve never seen people whipped up in such a frenzy before, except Obama.
Not really a good thing for conservatives to emulate. I think politics has failed at this point, and I fear what’s coming is blood and iron resolving things.
Well believe me you’re not unique, there are hundreds of thousands of progressives who inspiye of 100 Years of Marxism’s failures still think it’l work. Proof we don’t need no stinking proof. Innocent until proven guilty another principle that Cruisers don’t seem to honor.
Soon trump supporters will have no one to listen to but themselves and their leader. Opposing opinions are so namby pamby.
The good news is, they will always feel happy about what they hear.
After hearing this news I honestly don’t know how I’m going to make it through the rest of my day ...

Michelle Fields said she was pulled down by Lewandowski and she filed criminal assault charges with Jupiter PD.
She lied.
” party-line Trump propaganda”
That’s an oxymoron, right?
Respectfully…
I was under the distinct impression that Mr. Breitbart was not a fan of Trump, per the following quote:
““…Of course, he’s not a conservative. He was for Nancy Pelosi, before he was against Nancy Pelosi…celebrity is everything in this country if these guys don’t learn how to play the media the way Barack Obama played the media last election cycle and the way that Donald Trump is playing the election cycle–we’re going to probably get a celebrity candidate.”
-Andrew Breitbart 2011
I am honestly open to learning if that quote was out of context or something (I haven’t really researched all the things Mr. Breitbart had said on Trump), but to me it seems he probably wouldn’t be thrilled with the whole mess.
I guess that's your version of Cruz's "Trump supporters uniformed and disengaged" crap. That's just sad.
Trump's presidential campaign is flushing out all the globalist vermin!
The more rats that are smoked out of their holes, the better.
Maybe Ben can help all his friends get jobs with these guys:
"Ben Shapiro not only holds down the job of Editor at Large for Breitbart News, but he also is a featured writer and podcaster for DailyWire.com.
Further research had shown that the owners of this company are none other then the Wilks Brothers. Levi Wilks is listed as the Manager of Forward Publishing and has ties to 7 Pillar Records LLC. In turn 7 Pillar is run by a fellow named Farris Wilks. Farris is famous for being a real Texas Success Story, going from Brick Layer to Oil and Gas Tycoon to Church Preacher.
These are the very same Texas Billionaires who gave an impressive $15 million to a Ted Cruz Super PAC."
This is kind of like Mark Levin not telling his listeners that his soon to be stepson worked for the Cruz campaign, only this might be a tad more serious. You gotta give Cruz credit, he has tenacles everywhere.
