Simon & Schuster Cancels Milo Book Deal
DREW ANGERER

Publishing company Simon & Schuster has cancelled a book deal for alt-right personality Milo Yiannopoulos, following the circulation of a video in which he condoned pedophilia.

"After careful consideration @simonschuster and its @threshold_books have cancelled publication of Dangerous by Milo Yiannopoulos," the company's spokesperson Adam Rothberg tweeted on Monday. Yiannopoulos confirmed the cancellation on Facebook, writing "they cancelled my book."

It wasnt protests and trying to censor the dude which killed the deal, it was putting his own shit out there for all to see.
