Andrew Breitbart, the controversial conservative blogger, has died of natural causes at 43
Breitbart was famous for his aggressive attacks on liberal politicians and media members and was seen as a star of the conservative blogosphere.
He worked at the Drudge Report in the 1990s before launching several of his own sites, including BigJournalism.com, BigGovernment.com and BigHollywood.com.
He had a column for the conservative Washington Times and was a frequent speaker at Tea Party events.
Breitbart’s sites first published Congressman Anthony Weiner’s Twitter photos, and the pundit himself later hijacked Weiner’s resignation press conference to mock the disgraced lawmaker.
