They published on what others didn't dare, like Muslim rape statistics or Talcum X or campus rape culture not existing. Going against the narrative attracted people. People started speaking against them, creating a Streisand Effect, attracting even more people.

Milo and gamergate got them readers that wouldn't normally go looking for right wing news sites. They then exploited that the majority of media behaved the same way as game journalists do and expanded into anti-sjw articles. As most people were fed up with SJW rhetoric they quickly gained more readers. Mainstream media doubled down on SJW articles rather than being more centrist leaving them with no competition.
Same sort of pattern during the primaries and election. If people wanted to read an article about trump that wasn't hysterically alarmist they only had a few options. Once browsing habits are established people rarely change.

Fox is pure neoliberal trash, they might be "conservative" in name but they are globalist shills at heart. Breitbart is an actual nationalist news outlet, something that hasn't existed in America in a long time.

Interesting.
Also found a comment on this article;
breitbart.com
"Breitbart played it smart.
They knew from the traffic who had the support in the race as a result BB was the recipient of his supporters. We did not ask for BB to make the news we just wanted it reported and that is exactly what BB did
Congrats BB. I will never forget that BB and a handful of others sites was the only place I could go and express my opinions in support of Trump without getting banned. These publications I could count on one hand. BB, Gateway Pundit, Conservative Treehouse and the DC clothesline. You have my loyal support from here on out."

Its because people have no common sense or perspective. Therefore because they don't understand the intelligent part of the left's motives and only see the fools, the love the alt-right.
Xavier Ross
Still reading this article, it has some great quotes;
theguardian.com
"Milo Yiannopoulos, who built his fame and Twitter following by supporting and cheerleading Gamergate. This hashtag was the canary in the coalmine, and we ignored it."
"GamerGate movement was a mess – an undefined mission to Make Video Games Great Again via undecided means."
"In 2014, video game YouTube stars, seeking to appear in touch with online gaming communities, unscrupulously proclaimed that traditional old-media sources were corrupt."
"Everything we’re seeing now, had its precedent two years ago."
Basically a bunch of puzzle pieces came together;
Power vacuum => dinosaurs doubling down on hysteria + banning commenters etc.
Gamergate => general repetition, giving a taste of victory etc.
Eli Evans

Easy: They tell the truth. The left has become synonymous with dishonesty in all forms of media. The truth is fucking kryptonite to liberals now. When people want news without any bullshit trimmings, they go to Breitbart or Drudge. The more popular BB becomes, the more you hear liberals rage about it, on Normiebook, in comments sections, etc.:
>"Oh, where did you hear -that-, BREITBART, you neo-Nazi?"
>"I refuse to open a link from Breitbart."
>"hahahaha ignorant breitbart bigots"
You get the picture. They ignore the dozens of lying hack media outlets like HuffPo or WaPo they have in their pockets, ironically enough, when they launch those attacks, but that's something I'm sure we're all used to seeing by now. But over the last few years, I've noticed, as BB's popularity grew, that the left's smears became increasingly more frequent and vicious, which goes to show that when a dissenting opinion starts to become too loud, they're willing to escalate their attacks to whatever points necessary to shut them up as quickly as possible.

Oh yeah and coz the a lot of the idiots on the left are just following the crowd without questioning anything.
BTW that doesn't make the alt-right right?
Some idiot in Australia decided to make a law banning anyone from offending people because of their religion or whatever. Like hey, "Theres a lot of unrest and disenchantment in the white community, let's make a law so that they can't express that in ANY way and forget about them."
That's when u get One Nation and Trump. Fucking morons.

It's pretty funny, gamergate didn't directly do much but the damage to the medias reputation snowballed out of control. Almost all the large media companies were dumb enough to run anti-gamergate articles which poisoned their reputation. If a handful of idiots didn't start an internet grudge match with stubborn video game autists things probably would have turned out differently.

if something is insignificant and fake according to the MSM but still gets mentioned on their news it's gonna make some people really think and look for themselves
If trump was against independent media, he'd divert attention to CNN being incompetent so independent media gets no air time.

I hear Breitbart mentioned all the time now by normies. Like it's a household name now. Whereas two years ago, it was a fringe site that only political junkies knew about.
Great business strategy, whoever is responsible. Bannon I guess.
Owen Hughes
I can confirm; I came here from Breitbart during Stonetear. The comments are like shit-posting for old people.
Jayden Price
Probably over 50% of most western countries are conservative and right leaning. A large majority are anti-immigration. I think most people like Trump, or don't mind him, or would fall into those categories if they weren't brainwashed.
The media though is overwhelmingly liberal. Of the top 100 US newspapers, only a couple endorsed Trump, most were avowedly pro-Hillary.
So there's a massive demand for reading right-leaning news, and no-one except Breitbart was really supplying that.
So really, it was a pretty good bet they would increase their share.
Robert Reed
No, Breitbart comment sections regularly outperform Reddit now. There's at least one article with 10K comments every day. Gorsuch announcement was nearing 20K.
Chase James
Fox news has become mostly politically correct and only a few ppl there support trump. Overall they're not very right wing either, breitbart has picked up the slack and is unafraid of upsetting feefees

People are tired of getting fake news to the tune of "IF YOU'RE NOT A LIBERAL PROGRESSIVE DEMOCRAT, UR LITERALLY HITLER!"
You can't even argue that the networks, CNN, and MSNBC are even mainstream anymore when Breitbart and Drudge get more views than the network and cable news do in their primetime.

- SJW try to infiltrate video games and by doing so piss off neckbeards; culture they considered theirs being ripped away from them; leaving nerds with a taste for revenge
- Gamergate; Make Video Games Great Again via undecided means
- Almost all the large media companies were dumb enough to run anti-gamergate articles which poisoned their reputation.
- Leveraging distrust towards SJW, figure heads start to emerge; unscrupulously proclaimed that old-media sources were corrupt.
- Movements gain ground by finding figure heads who legitimise them in return for the support of online communities from which they drew power and influence.
- Figure heads provide a new sense of direction, focusing & generalising the rhetoric.
- Expands into a wider war between “Social Justice Warriors” (SJWs) and everyday, normal, decent people => progressive values, were destroying everything.
- Voices moved; geek communities => criticise progressive storylines and decisions; revolting kickback against the all-female Ghostbusters reboot."
- Video game industry didn’t have the spine to react, and allowed the movement to coagulate
- Breitbart’s trick - strongly represent a single issue in order to earn trust, and then gradually indoctrinate to suit wider purposes.
- Tactics used to discredit progressive game critics and developers will be used to discredit Trump and Bannon’s critics.
- Gamergates, greatest strength; left-leaning ideals: stamping out press corruption, pushing for better ethical practices, battling for openness.
- Anti-establishment; -> mainstream media challenge the collective beliefs of the movement => further evidence that journalists are untrustworthy and aloof => attracting a wave of online abuse.
- 4d chess marketing; "Oh, where did you hear -that-, BREITBART, you neo-Nazi?" >"I refuse to open a link from BREITBART." >"hahahaha ignorant BREITBART bigots"
- No-one more centrist leaving them with no competition.

Literally ALL of the American media are liberal faggots who should neck themselves except for Fox, Breitbart and the Federalist. So anyone wanting to consume news is funneled to them.
It really is an untapped market cuz ppl are pussies and afraid of t he SJW mob. I mean just being a non white conservative is enough to get regular appearances on Fox these days.
Connor White
I agree here, I didn't start reading Breitbart until I saw the liberal hissyfit over Bannon's appointment. Made me look into it and I liked what I saw.
Ian Peterson
>If a handful of idiots didn't start an internet grudge match with stubborn video game autists things probably would have turned out differently.
Yeah so to summarize;
- Last straw that broke the camel's back => gamer gate
- Embrace, extend, extinguish => reverse SJW tactics
- Mainstream crossover expansion => start out single issue (gamer gate) as an incubator (game companies depend on white male nerds) and expand from there.
- community growth spawns figureheads that provide laser focus => milo, trump etc
Someone should turn what has happened into a goddamn movie.

Wikileaks isn't popular on regular basis, they don't have daily visitors, but they get fuckloads of traffic if there is habbenings. Also pretty much everything they publish will get tons of mirrors, people digging into wikileaks documents usually link to and get their stuff from various different mirrors.

Although it is true that Jewish neocons and their religous right cheerleaders took over much of the democratic and republican parties, and a sizable chunk of the government too from the 1970s onward, the opposite was the case for the USSR. In the USSR the Jews basically took over Imperial Russia after Lenin's death. However, due to infighting and the rise of Stalin, most Jewish leaders were murdered, sent to camps, or made subservient to Stalin. After the Second World War Stalin wanted to go further and had this whole plan to reduce the power of the Jews in the USSR to zero, but it remained a plan because Stalin died in the 1950s.
From then on the Jews lost much power and influence, were barred from many high ranking offices, and had trouble getting into university. This all changed with the breakup of the USSR, which led to the rise of the oligarch, a majority of whom were Jewish, and so you could say that during the 1990s Russia was a zionist occupied government. However, when Putin became president he culled the oligarchs and put some of his own allies in oligarchical positions. Jewish billionaires either tow line of Putin and the security apparatus, or they are Poloniumnized like that Russian spy in London.

Majority of people here are too young and too ignorant to understand Cold War. Western economic reforms have mostly benefited the rich since late 60's, but it didn't really kick in until the Cold War ended and all credible competition for the west and globalism vanished. When communism was an option, in other words its failures were hidden behind propaganda,(((bankers))) had to be bit more equitable to middle class and working class.
Economic systems that created western middle class were result of economic chaos of the Great Depression, when (((banks))) failed big time. All economic liberalism since 60's have been aimed to undo the New Deal in US and similar reforms in the rest of the world.

This.
Also, white nationalism always was a very fringe-tier ideology. It only really arose after the Second World War. Before that you had WASP nationalism in the US, and Aryan nationalism in Germany.

For big, normie-friendly companies, there's no margin in risking involvement with something 'controversial'. But when maybe half the western world is conservative, traditionalist, anti-immigration and right leaning, and won't boycott a company just because their ads appear on Breitbart, there's a huge opportunity for smaller companies to grow, and Breitbart will get their revenue.
