When I first met Andrew in 2007 he was working with Matt Drudge on the Drudge Report. They had met years earlier and Andrew confessed that they were great friends. Today Drudge released this statement on Andrew Breitbart’s passing.
DEAR READER: In the first decade of the DRUDGEREPORT Andrew Breitbart was a constant source of energy, passion and commitment. We shared a love of headlines, a love of the news, an excitement about what’s happening. I don’t think there was a single day during that time when we did not flash each other or laugh with each other, or challenge each other. I still see him in my mind’s eye in Venice Beach, the sunny day I met him. He was in his mid 20’s. It was all there. He had a wonderful, loving family and we all feel great sadness for them today…
