The Los Angeles Coroner has ruled conservative website publisher and author Andrew Breitbart died of heart failure stemming from coronary disease.
Coroner spokesman Craig Harvey told the Associated Press Friday that a negligible amount of alcohol was found in Breitbart’s system but that no prescription or illicit drugs were present.
No significant trauma was present and foul play is not suspected, a release from the Department of the Coroner stated.
Harvey told the AP the case has been closed.
Breitbart died March 1 at the age of 43.

Posted on April 21, 2012 at 9:37amAnd now the Left continues to destroy Murdoch and his conservative media outlets . Co-incidence ? With the hidden Obama records, the union mob bullying, the Obama threats to the SCOTUS, I would put NOTHING inconceivable with this administration and its international Far Left allies. Like something out of a bad thriller novel, Big Brother nibbles away daily at our accustomed freedoms. And their evil twin, the international Left wing media, supports all of their destruction.

Posted on April 21, 2012 at 9:34amIt is just a bit ironic that he died the way he did…there are ways medically to induce a heart attack…he was not well liked by the regime

Posted on April 21, 2012 at 9:46amI hope your paranoid comments are in jest. I am sure there was no menacing liberal with a poisoned tipped umbrella lurking around Mr. Breitbart’s home. This is simply a tragically premature death of a father and husband. Let’s not look for conspiracies where they do not exist.

Posted on April 21, 2012 at 9:57amI suspect that nearly all have some form of arterial disease…Autopsies done on the boys killed in Viet Nam..18 yrs of age and up already showed signs of that..when a person dies..the heart fails..so if it had been an accident..the heart would have failed..If I remember correctly..he died that morning and by that afternoon they were already saying that he died of natural causes

Posted on April 21, 2012 at 9:59amI think the way they do it is in the food, not quite so dramatic but most effective and any autopsy results would have had to be cleared through the powers. Of course everyone knew what it would say and the media would kill the story the day after his death and they did. If he had gotten 2 percent of the publicity Zimmerman got, the truth would have prevailed.

Posted on April 21, 2012 at 9:27amAndrew’s life work was short, but he was loved and respected by many people. His family and closest friends were aware of his heart condition, so this report will likely contain no surprises for them. I hope they are sustained by good wishes as they grieve his death.

Posted on April 21, 2012 at 10:03amAnd Stephen (Steve?) Bridges the comedian who did great impersonations of the liar-in-chief? His death within a week of Breitbart’s certainly raised my antennae.
I agree with questions of coroner’s “ruling” (mandated ruling?): heart failure??? Indeed. And who was the man with whom he shared a drink shortly before he had “heart failure”? Anyone check that out????

Posted on April 21, 2012 at 9:14amthere are a few other Breitbart cause of death you tube videos that mention two other people have met their maker when they announced having some evidence against BO. If not initiated by BO, there sure are enough like-minded with motives that would stop at nothing to shut the truth down. The timing of these deaths are all questionable.

Posted on April 21, 2012 at 9:07amIf the coroner‘s saying Breitbart’s heart attack stemmed from hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, then he could’ve been dealing with this for quite a long time. That being said, I’d still like a non-governmental second opinion – if such a thing exists.

Slow down people. We need to reverse things slowly. It took 100 years (or more) to get to this precipice. It will take 100 (or more) to pull completely back.

Even if you live under a rock and have the reading comprehension of a snail, you should be able to gather from this story that he is indeed already dead.
Where did the Stossel bit come from? Just can’t help thinking about people that you want dead? Typical liberal!
