Milo Sues Simon & Schuster Over Reneged Book Deal for... $100 Million

That seems a bit on the high side, but I'm all in favor of letting corporations know that the costs of joining the left in an all-out war on the rest of America will be high.

See also: the purported group of "Republican conservative elder statesmen" who are out there publicly endorsing a big fat carbon tax. And urging its passage through Congress.

I figured there had to be a Bushie somewhere in the woodpile, and yep, sure enough, there was longtime Bush family consigliere James Baker.

But at least Baker is a Republican, for certain loosely defined values of "Republican". As for the guy who originally created this purportedly "conservative" group that includes Baker? He turns out to be a Soros operative from way back.

I do hope he takes them for 100 million and rides off into the sunset. Posted by: Widespread Pepe at July 07, 2017 04:39 PM (2qHjF)

If I'm wrong correct me, but his book interviews I've seen recently on Youtube his post-scandal persona seems more subdued and professional. A little. Enough that he stops discrediting himself as someone the left can just ignore.

He's closer to finding the sweet spot between outrageous Milo and legitimate Milo. When he finally perfects that balance, heaven help the left. Legitimately outrageous?

I wish it was 100 mill! But even the small 10 mill will be a powerful signal.

112 95 78 Milo is all about "muh brand". I listened to 2 recent interviews of him and the rest of the Right has caught up to his viciousness of punching back so he has nothing to separate himself except acting like a outrageous degenerate, which the country is turning against.

Just my opinion. I appreciate the groundwork he laid out, and I hope he takes them to the cleaners for 10-100 million.
Posted by: Widespread Pepe at July 07, 2017 04:49 PM (2qHjF)

He's being far more serious lately than he was while the election was going on. So he's not acting like much of an outrageous degenerate.

124 80 Why are media people so tone deaf? Megan Kelly, Milo Yiannopolis,
Glenn Beck, CNN, ESPN, torpedoed their gigs because they were seemingly
unaware of the values and beliefs of their target audiences. Why wasn't
Milo aware that while 90% of people who listened to him don't care what
two consenting adults do, they do think that sex with a minor is
exploitive, traumatic and immoral? If you have the same beliefs about
sex ethics as George Takei, are you really a conservative?

In an interview with Anthony Cumia, he claims that Breitbart was super loyal and wold have kept him on. He had no bad things to say about them. They were close to parting ways anyway due to new projects since he was "outgrowing" the Breitbart brand, so he resigned amicably.
