More from Breitbart News:
Bannon said, “I’m proud of what the Breitbart team has accomplished in so short a period of time in building out a world-class news platform.”
According to Breitbart CEO Larry Solov, “Steve is a valued part of our legacy, and we will always be grateful for his contributions, and what he has helped us to accomplish.”
Well, that’s certainly one way to frame it …

Bannon is out. He was telling people as late as this weekend that he wasn't leaving & would continue to thrive.
