CNN: Breitbart TV Would Bring in Trump Base

CNN’s Brian Stelter speculates that the Trump campaign’s use of a Facebook livestream to broadcast coverage before and after Wednesday night’s presidential debate “looked like a no-frills version of a cable news channel” and could presage a future news channel aimed at Trump’s populist center-right supporters.

CNN: ‘Donald Trump and the Breitbart Election’

Dylan Byers reports at CNN on how the trade, border security, and media bias issues of “the Breitbart contingent” have animated the 2016 election. These issues, as Breitbart Editor-in-Chief Alex Marlow points out, have redefined the old “left-right dichotomy” along the lines of “globalists and elitists versus populists and nationalists.”

Marlow in New York Magazine: Breitbart News Rises During Obama Years

In an op-ed for New York Magazine’s retrospective series titled “8 Years in Obama’s America, By Barack Obama and 60 Other Players and Witnesses,” Breitbart Editor-in-Chief Alex Marlow explains Breitbart’s success in shaping the political debate by becoming “the home of conservative opinion” against the permanent political class in Washington.

Politico: Glenn Beck’s ‘Bad Bet on Cruz’ a Crushing Blow to His Media Empire

Kenneth Vogel and Hadas Gold write in Politico about the latest trouble to strike Glenn Beck’s media empire, as Beck and one of his advertisers sue each other over unpaid bills and claims that the radio talker’s endorsement of Ted Cruz’s presidential campaign and increasingly shrill denunciations of Donald Trump alienated his audience. Politico notes that Beck’s diminished relevance is juxtaposed by the rising influence of Breitbart News, which — along with Matt Drudge, Sarah Palin, and Sean Hannity — Beck has repeatedly attacked during this election cycle.

Politico: Conservative Media Like Breitbart Built the Conservative Movement

Nicole Hemmer, the Assistant Professor of Presidential Studies at the University of Virginia’s Miller Center, provided Politico an excerpt of her new book, “Messengers of the Right: Conservative Media and the Transformation of American Politics.” As Hemmer explains in her preface, conservative media outlets like Breitbart have historically provided the backbone of the conservative movement in America.

New York Times: ‘Breitbart News Has Arrived’

Breitbart News has arrived. The opinion and news site, once a curiosity of the fringe right wing, is now an increasingly powerful voice, and virtual rallying spot, for millions of disaffected conservatives who propelled Donald J. Trump to the Republican nomination for president.

Two Words Explain Hillary’s ‘Racist’ Rant Against 31 Million Breitbart Readers: ‘Clinton Cash’

The book-turned-film that has inflicted the most lasting and politically lethal damage to Hillary Clinton and her campaign, “Clinton Cash,” came from the investigative pen of Breitbart Senior Editor-at-Large Peter Schweizer. Bloomberg Politics editor Mark Halperin hails Clinton Cash as “the Right’s greatest success story.” And that is why Hillary Clinton’s campaign has decided to throw a race-baiting temper tantrum aimed at lashing out at the news organization behind the “Clinton Cash” juggernaut, one that has coalesced into media outlets across the political spectrum calling for the Clinton Foundation’s immediate closure.
