RIP Anderew Breitbart

[TrainTrac]

Sad news. Breitbart was a pioneer in the area of internet journalism, with a tireless quest for the truth.

With a terrible feeling of pain and loss we announce the passing of Andrew Breitbart.



Andrew passed away unexpectedly from natural causes shortly after midnight this morning in Los Angeles.



We have lost a husband, a father, a son, a brother, a dear friend, a patriot and a happy warrior.



Andrew lived boldly, so that we more timid souls would dare to live freely and fully, and fight for the fragile liberty he showed us how to love.



Andrew recently wrote a new conclusion to his book, Righteous Indignation:



I love my job. I love fighting for what I believe in. I love having fun while doing it. I love reporting stories that the Complex refuses to report. I love fighting back, I love finding allies, andfamouslyI enjoy making enemies.



Three years ago, I was mostly a behind-the-scenes guy who linked to stuff on a very popular website. I always wondered what it would be like to enter the public realm to fight for what I believe in. Ive lost friends, perhaps dozens. But Ive gained hundreds, thousandswho knows?of allies. At the end of the day, I can look at myself in the mirror, and I sleep very well at night.



Andrew is at rest, yet the happy warrior lives on, in each of us.

Thats ONE persons opinion of the man...

After he blew a cork yelling at the OWS folks at CPAC, I knew he wasn't long for this world. Even in the dark, you could see bulging veins in his neck and redness in his face. Sounds like he had a history of heart blockages and high blood pressure. He picked the wrong career for being so physiologically fragile.
