The site has published a number of falsehoods and conspiracy theories, as well as intentionally misleading stories (according to <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Breitbart_News\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Wikipedia<\/a>). When it suits their purpose, they do not distinguish carefully between facts and opinions (&#8220;alternative facts&#8221;) as would be good practice in journalism.<\/p>\n<p>Its former executive chairman Steve Bannon declared the website &#8220;the platform for the alt-right&#8221; (i.e. &#8220;Alternative Right&#8221;). In the 2016 election campaign, Breitbart News supported Donald Trump. After D. Trump&#8217;s victory, Steve Bannon became White House Chief Strategist. He stayed there until 18 August 2017 and has now returned to Breitbart.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">The <strong>Schmalbart Network<\/strong> not only challenges the &#8220;Breitbart News Network&#8221; but all kinds of untruth, distortion and forgery in the media.
