Running out of money and down on his luck, right-wing provocateur Milo Yiannopoulos laid off the small staff of Milo Entertainment Inc. earlier this month, according to three people familiar with the situation. Yiannopoulos’ company has fallen on hard times ever since his former patrons, Robert and Rebekah Mercer, severed their financial backing last year.
According to the sources, Yiannopoulos had been expecting to instead receive significant financial backing from the banking heir and cryptocurrency billionaire Matthew Mellon. But those hopes were dashed with Mellon’s unexpected death from an apparent drug overdose on April 16.
“He fired everybody,” said one person familiar with Yiannopoulos’ operation, which had employed a handful of full-time and part-time staffers. Among them was the journalist Chadwick Moore, who was technically terminated several days before learning of his firing, according to two people familiar with the situation.
Moore spent those days with Yiannopoulos, unaware that he had been fired. Yiannopoulos was supposed to inform Moore of his dismissal, according to a person familiar with the situation.
Was Moore already fired during the “Nazi scum get out” thing at a Manhattan bar? That would be extra delicious.
It’s quite remarkable some journalists are reporting from “unnamed sources” that I’m unemployed, despite me directly telling them otherwise when they asked. I’m still working very hard. It’s almost like they don’t care to be factual when reporting on their ideological enemies.

Virtually every conservative news outlet reported on @RichardGrenell being confirmed today as ambassador to Germany. Virtual silence, or buried coverage, from mainstream media, leftist media, and gay media. The takeaway: Gay people don’t have to be democrats.

People have shown me that @TheAdvocateMag did cover Ric Grenell’s confirmation. I searched their site and never saw that story, so i apologize to my former employer who has me blocked on Twitter. But the story was also really cunty so who cares.
