Matt here. Last year, The Daily Caller published a story exposing me and the names of my family and friends. Breitbart jumped on it and my family was hit with 2 weeks of harassment, including this death threat to my son on their comment section. This is what @facebook deems news.
I asked @joelpollak, the editor-at-large of Breitbart to remove this threat to my son and the address of our synagogue from their comment section along, which he refused to do for five straight days until we had received dozens more death threats.
Months after, one year ago today, Breitbart decided to try to sue ME simply for posting screenshots of their articles and asking advertisers if they supported that content. They never went through with it, but the threat was intentional and clear.

Despite what @Facebook says, this is not how a “trusted” news organization acts. This cannot and should not be framed as a political argument. This site has a record of racism, threats & harassment (see below)
This isn’t “news” & it shouldn’t be “trusted”.

BTW...this is not even mentioning The Daily Caller, currently employed by @facebook as “fact checkers”, who kept these anti-Semitic death threats up for five days after being flagged to ensure maximum harassment.
