> Maybe this speaks more about how Wikipedia works than quality of Breitbart as a source. It has nothing to do with how wikipedia works rather than the pressure being put on it by monied interests and the news organizations. What is happening to wikipedia is what happened to google, reddit, youtube, twitter, etc. It's the elite media ( particular nytimes, washingtonpost, cnn, et al ) trying to muscle out everyone else. In the long run, this isn't going to hurt breitbart or any of the right leaning news sources. Right leaning people are going to find it one way or another. It's going to hurt vox, theverge, huffingtonpost, buzzfeed and the billions of left leading fringe news sources as the big boys get special treatment. I'm certain that breitbart is going to be around 10 years from now. I'm not sure about vox and company. And also in the long run, it's going to make people distrust the nytimes, washingtonpost, cnn, etc even more. But I don't think they care. Que sera sera. People really underestimate how much external money pressure is being put on tech companies like wikipedia to serve as propaganda outlets. It's not even tech, even the ACLU is feeling the pressure. The only thing mere mortals can do is see out things play.
