[2/25/17] In footage that came to light as a part of the 2012
documentary ‘Hating Breitbart,’ the right wing populist website’s
co-founder Andrew Breitbart explains his plan to attack and destroy the
mainstream media, specifically CNN and the New York Times.
“The media class is the wall that we have to climb over in order for our voices to be heard,” he said. “Once our voices are heard, then Democracy will happen.”
Breitbart was poisoned in March 2012 at age 43. Stephen K. Bannon, who took over Breitbart’s news website after his death, is now the top assistant to the president.
“My goal is to destroy the New York Times and CNN,” Breitbart said in the video. “And not just them.”
“That they would take our criticism and our acting as their checks and balances –the fith estate on the fourth estate– that they would correct themselves and become better citizens.”
