Prove it. Or retract your false accusation. Breitbart News is presented professionally and seriously while rejecting Fake News. Here's a good example:
Politico Edits False Story Claiming Trump Owes Millions to China
Politico edited on Saturday morning a story claiming Donald Trump owes millions to the Bank of China for a loan on a New York City office building, hours after Breitbart News exposed the story as false.
Updates (But No Correction) After Pressure from Breitbart News
The story now begins with a note that it has been “updated to include comment from the Bank of China and additional reporting.” Despite the initial story being substantively incorrect and getting several details wrong, Politico did not issue a formal correction, as standard journalistic good practice would indicate they should. What’s more, the story continues to be wrong in several places.
THE TRUTH
Breitbart News reported Friday that the story was wrong. President Trump is not the debtor and Bank of China is not the creditor on the loan to 1290 Avenue of the Americas. Trump is the minority partner in a real estate deal that owns the building, had nothing to do with arranging the loans, and is not liable for their repayment. Bank of China was one of a consortium of lenders in 2012 that provided $950 million but sold its interest days later when the loan was repackaged into bonds for investors.

When Breitbart was still alive, and running his own outlet, I felt he was balanced and truthful. Once he was gone, the people who took it over turned it into a Trump sycophant site. It's just as biased as CNN, just on the other end of the scale. You can say it isn't, but that doesn't change the truth of the situation. I want news that is both factual and un-biased, not spun to one extreme side of the scale or the other. If you are laying there unable to sleep at night because of my statements, take some Melatonin and call it a night. No retraction is necessary, or forthcoming . . .
