Ben Shapiro Betrays Loyal BreitbartReaders in Pursuit of Fox NewsContributorship
by WILLIAM BIGELOW 14 Mar 2016
LOS ANGELES — Former Breitbart News editor-at-large BenShapiro announced Sunday evening via left-wing Buzzfeed thathe is abandoning Andrew Breitbart’s lifelong best friend, widow,hand-picked management team and friends in pursuit of anelusive contributorship at the Fox News Channel.
Friends of Hamas could not be found for comment.
Shapiro, a Harvard lawyer and member of the State Bar of California, apparently violatedvirtually every clause in his employment contract during an appearance on The Kelly Filelast Thursday evening.
It was business as usual for the ambitious conservative gadfly, who is known to live on theedge, courting and then leaving a series of companies over the past several years.

Buzzfeed, a site that has been aiming to destroy Breitbart News since the moment AndrewBreitbart died, and which has predicted the demise of Breitbart.com for the past fouryears, rewarded Shapiro for his bravery by placing news of his resignation just beneathseveral other hot stories, including “This Wee Little Snake Taking Its First Breath WillCure Anyone’s Fears,” and “2/26: How Two Llamas And A Dress Gave Us The Internet’sGreatest Day.”
The story ran next to a photograph of a baby snake hatching from its shell, apparently foremphasis. Somehow, Shapiro’s name was omitted from the headline on Buzzfeed’s homepage.

Breitbart news editor-in-chief Alex Marlow was stupefied: “My friend Ben Shapiro brokethe news on a website that asks its staff to drink their own urine? Impossible.”
Breitbart California editor Joel B. Pollak, Shapiro’s friend and fellow Orthodox Jew,expressed concern for his former colleague.
“I’m worried. I had enjoyed listening to Ben read Breitbart California stories, word forword, without attribution, on his morning radio show. Now what will he do for content?”
Breitbart News senior management issued a short statement: “Ben’s listicles will bemissed.”
The mood was somber at Breitbart News’ Los Angeles office, where one staffer staredsilently at promotional copies of Shapiro’s books, left behind on the shelves when the
