Breitbart Reporter “Proud” Of “Working With” Shady Democrat Operative To “Expose” Rubio

Filed under: General — Patterico @ 6:05 pm



I was going to do this as an update to this morning’s post, but the editor at RedState asked me to do it as a stand-alone post. So I’ll throw them the exclusive link. Read the full post here at RedState.

The tl;dr version:

Breitbart reporter Matt Boyle is not only not denying a relationship with Aaron Black, the shady Democrat operative exposed by James O’Keefe . . . but he’s actually saying he is proud to have “worked with” Black to “expose” Marco Rubio.

Wow.

  1. I said: Wow.

  2. Well, it seems that Breitbart’s legacy has been shat upon even more than we thought.

  6. Rubio warns GOP to stay silent on WikiLeaks hack [POLITICO] no links for bullies unless it helps us

    DO that PIG all UP in IT

  7. well he was a source, but keep following those squirrels,

    A “source” whose bullshit they touted to the nth degree.

    You honestly think it’s cool for these people to be “proud” to have been “working with” this guy?

    Really??

    Patterico (115b1f)

  8. I wonder if Obama and the Democrats will respect Boyle and Bannon for it. (snicker)

  9. they’ll probably make hadas gold, press spokesman for some agency, probably hhs,

  10. it’s so easy

    it’s so right

    it’s so easy

  11. Now *that* brings value to your blog posts, Patterico.

  12. Ya gotta love those selective quotations. Breitbart puts the Rubio “expose” like this:

    I

    n that section, there are a few half-truths in Gold’s article. First off, Breitbart News did cover the incident of Robot Rubio—Aaron Black—getting physically confronted by Rubio staffer Cliff Hurst. Hurst, Rubio’s state director in New Hampshire, manhandled Black—who was wearing a robot costume to poke fun at Rubio’s horrendous debate performance in an exchange with New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie—in the video.

    What Gold doesn’t say, however, is who actually pushed the story to Breitbart News. Black did not have a hand in pushing this particular story. Breitbart News can reveal here for the first time that it was a paid staffer—whose identity this network will protect, because Breitbart News believes in journalism—for former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush’s campaign that first flagged the incident for Breitbart News and sent the video to Breitbart News.

    “Here is the video,” the Jeb Bush staffer said in an email to Breitbart News, with a link to the YouTube clip of Hurst bashing Black

  13. Invasion of the Body Snatchers for real…

    Did the Left purposely infiltrate Breitbart to turn it because it had been too effective?

    The children of darkness are far more sly and cunning than the children of the light

  14. If both happyfeet and narciso were not around here anymore, the rise in the average intelligence of the commenters would be directly proportional to the rise in the average readability of comments.

    Just an idle thought that I’m pleased to share.

  15. strong delusion, maybe it’s god’s way of testing us, md,

    other people had admired my subreferences, sorry to get in the way of ‘two minute hate’, the media is more reminiscent of a third world people’s republic in a doc savage tale,

    I thought the whole ‘robot’ trope was overdone, somethings you have to repeat, like pointing out obama’s malign intent, the press won’t do it, except for atkinson and logan,

  35. And the issue is …?

    I mean, if the #NeverTrump-ers are justified in doing everything in their power, including working with Hillary supporters, to see that Trump is defeated, why are those who are #NeverRubio unjustified in doing everything in their power, including working with Dem operatives, to see that Rubio is defeated?

    Two sides of the same coin, sir. #Never means #Never, even if you have to play dirty.

    No, none of them are above 128. 128 in binary would be 10000000. I don’t see a single entry with a leading 1.

    nk is making a joke on “binary choice” by printing the binary equivalent of the ASCII values of the characters he’s writing.
