Literary review stands up to publisher over hate speech

https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2017/jan/04/simon-schuster-alt-right-hate-breitbart-milo-yiannopoulos?CMP=share_btn_tw But Yiannapoulos is not a conservative intellectual leader with a political agenda.

Steve Bannon, Chief Strategist for Trump enables Neo-Nazi terrorists

http://www.nydailynews.com/news/politics/king-alt-right-full-nazi-bannon-lands-white-house-job-article-1.2882385 The movement that the incoming Chief Strategist of the White House brazenly built an online home for is openly quoting Nazi propaganda in German in federal buildings and giving each other Nazi salutes.
