Breitbart News Says It Will Sue Media Org for Reporting White Supremacist Bent

The white supremacist website, Breitbart News, is upset major media have reported the white supremacist editorial commitment of Breitbart, the flagship journal and central platform of the racist Alt Right.

Reports Joe Concha of The Hill:

Breitbart News is preparing a lawsuit against a 'major media company' over claims that it is a white nationalist website, it said in an exclusive statement to The Hill.

The [Breitbart] website has been under intense scrutiny since President-elect Donald Trump named Stephen Bannon as a senior White House counselor and strategist.

Updated - A good start for white supremacists as president-elect Donald Trump announced the appointment of white supremacists to top-level posts, "signaling an embrace of the fringe ideology long advanced by Mr. [Stephen K.] Bannon," an open white supremacist, (NYT).

White House appointees, RNC chair Reince Priebus and Bannon, differ only on style and the Alt-Right and the Republican Party have both long made clear their hostility to America as a pluralistic country with expansive Constitutional liberty guarantees.

Talk of national unification with white supremacists persists in some American political circles

The announcement of the Bannon and Priebus follows by two days the Trump transition team's notice that the Trump White House will enact a "new deal" for African-Americans with a "plan for urban renewal," (CBS News).
