I'm not sure that everyone is aware that Andrew Breitbart outed the FORMER scumbag Congressman, Anthony Weiner, exposing himself to young women on Twitter. Breitbart wrote about how he made the discovery and followed through in an updated copy of his book:

New Breitbart Chapter Tells Tale of Weiner




When Anthony Weiner tweeted pictures of himself unclad to young female followers, he thought he’d get away with it. But thanks to Andrew Breitbart, Anthony Weiner was called to account.

Now, in the new edition of Breitbart’s book, Righteous Indignation, Andrew reveals the inside story of how Weinergate went down. Here’s just a taste:

I began multitasking, refreshing my Twitter stream on my iPad. It was at that moment that the best-laid vacation plans of mice and men ended, and my recommittment to the story began four days ahead of schedule.”

Huh, I thought, what’s this?

Someone, using the Twitter handle PatriotUSA76, had re-tweeted an alleged tweet of sitting congressman Anthony Weiner (D-NY). The message included a link to an image, which I immediately clicked. While sipping wine, I looked at the image at first with mild confusion. What am I looking at? I wondered. I picked up the iPad and turned it in different directions to try to make out what the image was. It took about ten seconds for me to get it, at which point I had a mild ‘Eureka’ moment: Aha! I know exactly what that is! … The next twenty-four hours — even though it was Saturday of a Memorial Day weekend — were going to be critical. We knew that the organized left was going to wage war, and by the time I woke up the next day, after launching the story, I realized that the Democrat-Media Complex was playing for keeps ….

I knew that I was performing Chinese water torture on Congressman Weiner and his allies, but I also knew that for one brief moment in my controversial media life, I was hand-feeding the media beast special cheese, fudge, and the richest delicacy they could possibly consume.

The new paperback edition of Andrew’s book will be released April 24.
