ABC News: "Big Government broke the ACORN child sex trafficking scandal"

From ABC News online story announcing Breitbart's death:



http://abcnews.go.com/US/andrew-breitbart-publisher-author-dead/story?id=15824337

He also founded his own news network, acting as the publisher of several news websites including Breitbart.com, Breitbart.tv, Big Hollywood, Big Government, Big Journalism and Big Peace.

Big Government broke the ACORN child sex trafficking scandal and also, in 2011, the "Weinergate" photo scandal that led to the resignation of New York Rep. Anthony Weiner.

that's where the ACORN people called the cops on the Breitbart people and the Breitbart people didn't report that part?

He also "broke" the Shirley Sherrod story, I hope he is given full credit for that one as well.
