New Amazon funding Breitbart??
Per weareultraviolet.org,/ and a bunch of links: seems so
(Over a few years, have yet to find a bogus missive from this group.)

Let's see if these embedded links find a copacetic drop-in html here:
[Damn.. NO !!! W.T.F. not ?! .. gotta go, but will ^%#%#^$ grab a few the lengthy way, below: ]
Can always google the prose and likely get the missing links; I can't now.

Once just an ultra-conservative news site, Breitbart has grown in influence both in and outside of the White House. Its former executive chair turned chief White House strategist, Steve Bannon, brought two Breitbart staffers on board with him.5 The site had such a defining role in the presidential election that executives are actually looking to expand in time to manipulate important elections abroad.6

[Oh Swell: a permanent cancer on the asshole of humanity: launched from the dis-USA. One. More. Time.]

And they're doing it with the help of revenue coming in from advertisers. It has already lost business from big companies like Allstate and Hewlett-Packard, and now Amazon employees are clamoring for cutting all of its advertising on Breitbart.7 Without revenue from ads and the sponsorship of a corporate giant like Amazon, Breitbart and its dangerous agenda lose steam.

UltraViolet is joining our friends at The Representation Project to pressure Amazon. Will you also join and demand that Amazon quit advertising with Breitbart?

Thanks for taking action.

Looks like it's gonna take a LOT of extemporaneous delving by actually dedicated nobodies ... to feed the ANTI-Alt-Right nascent groups: to stamp out THESE well-funded BRQWN SHIRTS.

New That's a bridge too far.
Amazon is benefiting from Breitbart readers way more than indirectly paying Breitbart for ad placement. That's how advertising works. Yes, Breitbart gets some revenue. But, one could say Breitbart is funding Amazon more.

Besides, Bezos owns the Washington Post which is not known to be a right wing rag.

"There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that "my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge."

-- Isaac Asimov
New That requires logic (!) whereas,
Perception is All, especially within the Frame-to-imagination Newspeak-'16. No?

If this Shopping-Mall (to $$transcend all lesser, wannabe 'malls') runs ADvertainment for something ultimately malodorous as is this example
(at least to anyone: whose 'scents' make any sense at all?)

So then, cutting to a mangled KISS: it SAYS that Bezos is One o'Them! CHA. cha cha. I'd wot.
No neurons ordered next to invoke math ..or any other cerebral analysis. Rest case.
