Breitbart ads plummet nearly 90 percent in three months as Trump’s troubles mount
Six months ago, Breitbart was riding the wave of the election, plotting an international expansion to provide a platform to spread far-right, populist views in Europe. But today, Breitbart is facing traffic declines, advertiser blacklists, campaigns for marketers to steer clear and even a petition within Amazon for it to stop providing ad services.

There were just 26 brands appearing on Breitbart in May, down from a high of 242 in March, according to MediaRadar, which tracks ads on websites. Many conservative sites, including Townhall, The Blaze and National Review, have also had declines, although those declines are much less pronounced than Breitbart, according to MediaRadar.

Breitbart’s editor and site haven’t replied to requests for comment.

More broadly, Breitbart has been caught up in the escalating scandal over fake news and “unsafe” content on platforms like YouTube and Facebook. Many marketers are now tightening brand-safety guidelines. But even if Breitbart’s advertising dries up completely, it still has a billionaire benefactor in Robert Mercer so it may stick around anyway — and a commerce business that hawks T-shirts, coffee mugs and beer koozies.

Hasn't Breitbart turned liberal?
I don't have the time or the crayons to explain this to you.

New York Times' Digital Subscriptions Continue To Drive Growth

The New York Times Company announced solid fiscal first quarter results on May 3, as both its earnings per share and revenue came in ahead of expectations. NYT reported unprecedented growth in digital subscriptions, which helped the company stabilize its circulation revenues in the first quarter. The company’s total circulation revenues increased 11% year-over-year (y-o-y) in the quarter, with digital-only subscription revenue growing strongly at 40% y-o-y to $76 million. In addition, the company’s other revenues grew 21% y-o-y to $26 million largely due to affiliate referral revenue associated with the acquisition of Wirecutter and Sweethome (October 2016). However, headwinds in print advertising (-18%) resulted in a 7% y-o-y decline in the company’s overall advertising revenues in the quarter. Despite this continued pressure, the company’s overall revenues grew 5% y-o-y to $399 million, driven by very strong digital revenues.

Re: Breitbart ads plummet nearly 90 percent in three months as Trump’s troubles mount
If true, they brought it on themselves by failing to moderate their mostly unpleasant, bigoted, and awful comments after articles.

Breitbart's intelligent, well-written journalism was hurt by allowing and tolerating crass and offensive comments.

Those comments helped damage the site's reputation and gave fuel to liberal agitation toward advertisers. And advertisers don't want to be associated with sites where ugly comments appear.

Sure, just like the intellectual TrumpTard did above by posting a bunch of BS flags.

That's just about the best he could come up with.

Leftists ignored Breitbart news site until Trump won.

Before that, leftists were focused on their liberal news and politics websites, getting all incestuous among their own kind. They were so sure they would beat him that they didn't care about conservative media.

Nice try.

Not true.

Leftists invaded breitbart 24/7 since he announced he was running.

I have an account on Disqus...under this name...I've been on breitbart for over 2 years.

Try again.

OK. Thanks for confirming that Breitbart is fake news. Maybe that is why their advert revenue is plummeting. Wonder how long they can stay in business like that?

I don't go there anymore because...

a) it can be liberal sometimes

b) the site takes way too long to load
