Breitbart Lost 90% of Its Advertisers


June 9, 2017 By Taegan Goddard

Washington Post: “The number of advertisers on the alt-right site Breitbart.com has dropped 90 percent in recent months, from 242 in March to 26 in May, according to data from MediaRadar, a New York firm that tracks online advertising. Among those that continue to advertise on the site include a gentleman’s club in Northern Virginia, a golf resort near the coast of Spain and the conservative foundation Judicial Watch.”

I remember how Limpballs lost a lot of advertisers a while back, but he's still got his little show nationwide.

Hopefully Not-Bright Bart won't have enough behind them to weather the storm.

set up by Richard Mellon Scaife's wife to apparently swiftboat the Clintons into perpetuity. They boasted of having 5 whole new "scandals" all developed and ready to launch when she took office. Bad news for their prominence when she lost. The material they provided had filled broadcast and cable news for over 20 years, since Bill's first run for president and the development of the 24/7 news cycle.

I notice they just released a new Hillary email, something about using a blackberry, but it's just not the same.

And what's this on their site: "Video: Comey’s testimony proved that he is a dirty cop: Christopher Farrell" A falling out among thieves?
