Breitbart was founded in 2007 by Andrew Breitbart as a conservative media outlet. <ref> Owen, Rob "[http://www.post-gazette.com/technology/2007/03/16/The-next-wave-Ex-WTAE-anchor-Scott-Baker-changes-channel-to-run-Web-news-site/stories/200703160185 The next wave: Ex-WTAE anchor Scott Baker changes channel to run Web news site]" Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. March 16, 2007 - [https://archive.is/4rCTd Archived Version]</ref> <ref> Friedersdorf, Conor "[http://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2012/11/breitbartcom-struggles-with-the-contradictions-of-its-namesake/264372 Breitbart.com Struggles With the Contradictions of Its Namesake]" The Atlantic. November 1, 2012 - [https://archive.is/jAq0z Archived Version]</ref> After Gamergate, Breitbart has become wildly popular particularly since the beginning of the American 2016 election season. It is now one of the most viewed conservative news sites. <ref>Farhi, Paul "[https://www.washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/style/how-breitbart-has-become-a-dominant-voice-in-conservative-media/2016/01/27/a705cb88-befe-11e5-9443-7074c3645405_story.html How Breitbart has become a dominant voice in conservative media]" The Washington Post. January 27, 2016 - [https://archive.is/op5Pg Archived Version]</ref>

== Involvement with Gamergate ==
Breitbart was not involved with Gamergate until [[Milo Yiannopoulos]], an Associate Editor at Breitbart <ref> [https://uk.linkedin.com/in/yiannopoulos linkedin profile of Milo Yiannopoulos] - [https://archive.is/B6m3R Archived Version] </ref>, wrote an article on Breitbart decrying the feminist bullies ripping into the video game industry <ref> Yiannopoulos, Milo "[http://www.breitbart.com/london/2014/09/01/lying-greedy-promiscuous-feminist-bullies-are-tearing-the-video-game-industry-apart FEMINIST BULLIES TEARING THE VIDEO GAME INDUSTRY APART]" Breitbart London. September 1, 2014 - [https://archive.is/vuzlG Archived Version] </ref> a couple of weeks after Gamergate began. Breitbart acted as a venue for Milo Yiannopoulos' Gamergate related articles. As the Gamergate movement escalated, Breitbart eventually created its Breitbart Tech section, with Milo Yiannopoulos at its head in October 2015. Breitbart Tech is a branch of Breitbart concerned specifically with game industry related news, primarily video games news. <ref> Brustein, Joshua "[http://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2015-10-27/breitbart-news-is-preparing-to-troll-tech Breitbart News Is Preparing to Troll Tech]" Bloomberg. October 27, 2015 - [https://archive.is/fDPsh Archived Version] </ref> Thanks to Milo Yiannopoulos' influence and the writers hired to Breitbart Tech, Breitbart remains a notable ally for Gamergate causes.
=== GameJournoPros ===
Notably, Breitbart is where Milo Yiannopoulos broke the story about the [[GameJournoPros]] email list. <ref> Yiannopoulos, Milo "[http://www.breitbart.com/london/2014/09/17/exposed-the-secret-mailing-list-of-the-gaming-journalism-elite/ EXPOSED: THE SECRET MAILING LIST OF THE GAMING JOURNALISM ELITE]" Breitbart London.

== Trivia ==

Breitbart is on [[Kotaku in Action]]'s blacklist, Tier 2, because it has numerous issues, but the situation is complex. The site requires mod approval before post appears. The subreddit's mods will only allow Breitbart's tech articles to go through.<ref> Blacklist/Whitelist (KiA) -
