===Breitbart is Here===
Since Breitbart's passing, he has become something of a martyr for those who would challenge the journalist establishment and seek to engage in "citizen journalism". His likeness has become an image that is seen around the internet under the heading of "''Breitbart is Here''",<ref>[http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2012/03/15/palin-breitbart-is-here/ Sarah Palin: Breitbart Is Here], [[Breitbart.com]]</ref>, and shortly after his passing, Bill Whittle, who was a close personal friend of Andrew's, proclaimed that "''We Are All Breitbart Now'',<ref>[http://theconservativetreehouse.com/2012/03/07/we-are-all-breitbart-now-thoughts-from-bill-whittle/ We Are All Breitbart Now… Thoughts From Bill Whittle]</ref> which is an attempt to fill his shoes now that he is gone. Whittle says that it would take more than a thousand to fill the void that has been left behind.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pS2nAPQufRc Be Warned Mainstream Media, Andrew Breitbart Is Here]</ref>

===Posthumous Release of 'Obama Harvard Tapes'===
Despite Breibart's tragic death on March 1, 2012, the video he had from Obama's college days at [[Harvard]] were released on [[Hannity]] on March 6th. Commonly known as the 'Obama college video', it depicts Obama speaking at a rally in 1991 held for [[liberal]] [[Professor Derrick Bell]], a longtime [[racist]] who built an academic career out of accusing the majority of Americans of being [[racist]] and [[discriminatory]] to him with no evidence for his accusations<ref>[http://nation.foxnews.com/derrick-bell/2012/03/13/words-derrick-bell The Words of Derrick Bell], [[Fox News]]</ref>. In the course of the rally, Obama praises Bell's views and commitment, and then embraces the "[[Jeremiah Wright]] of Academia" <ref>[http://nation.foxnews.com/president-obama/2012/03/07/obama-harvard-tapes-exposed-hannity Obama Harvard Tapes Exposed on Hannity], [[Fox News]]</ref>. Liberals seeking to cover up the mounting evidence of Obama's hatred for America and [[conservative]] values led a massive [[smear campaign]] against Breitbart and attempted to portray the tapes as a non-issue.<ref>[http://www.nydailynews.com/news/election-2012/andrew-breitbart-bombshell-video-barack-obama-college-days-released-falls-flat-article-1.1035322 Andrew Breitbart ‘bombshell’ video from Barack Obama’s college days released, falls flat say critics]</ref>
