The Signal Sitdown

The Man Who Laid the Groundwork for the Rise of Trump and the Death of the Media | Larry O’Connor

It’s Andrew Breitbart’s world, we’re all just living in it.


Tragically, Breitbart himself is not. He died suddenly on March 1, 2012 at just 43 years of age.


In his life, Breitbart was always a pioneer, pushing media and politics to the edges of the map only to open a completely new frontier. There’s something fitting to him exploring the frontier of eternity just a little before the rest of us in his earthly death. Breitbart spent most of his career at the confluence of Hollywood, media, and politics. He was one of the first men on the right to clearly see the complete picture. “Celebrity is everything in this country,” Breitbart once said. “Media is everything. It's everything.”


After listening to a radio interview with Breitbart, Larry O’Connor, then a show manager for Broadway productions, contacted Breitbart and wanted to write for his blog Big Hollywood. O’Connor found Breitbart, but Breitbart also found O’Connor. Now a radio host with Washington, D.C.’s WMAL, probably the most influential political radio station in the country, and author of a new book titled “Shameless Liars,” O’Connor joined "The Signal Sitdown" to discuss how Andrew Breitbart saw the rise of Trump, and the efforts to take him down like the Russiagate hoax, coming.
