White Nationalist Milo Yiannopoulos Offered $250k Book Deal by Simon & Schuster

This morning it was announced by The Hollywood Reporter that Threshold Editions, imprint of major book publishing company Simon & Schuster, offered white nationalist Milo Yiannopoulos a $250k book deal. In a statement said exclusively to The Hollywood Reporter, Yiannopoulos compared himself to both Madonna and his ‘daddy’ Donald Trump. “They said banning me from Twitter would finish me off. Just as I predicted, the opposite has happened. Did it hurt Madonna being banned from MTV in the 1990s? Did all that negative press hurt Donald Trump’s chances of winning the election?”

The notorious, avid Trump supporter, Milo Yiannopoulos, is widely known for his outrageous and commonly racist online personality. He’s also a writer with his works published by The Daily Telegraph and small conservative news site, Breitbart News. He also received widespread attention this July after getting his Twitter account permanently deleted for viciously attacking Ghostbusters actress Leslie Jones, calling her a “a hot black dude” who looks “remarkably like one of my ex-boyfriends.” When his account was still active on Twitter, his supporters took his comments on Jones as permission for them to go ahead and also harass her. His followers sent her a tirade of extremely racist, sexist and even violent threats. Many trolls compared her to Harambe, the gorilla who was killed at the Cincinnati Zoo.

In response to all the hate that Jones was receiving, she said, “Ok I have been called Apes, sent pics of their asses, even got a pic with semen on my face. I’m trying to figure out what human means. I’m out.”

His crazy antics are far from over and range from disgusting comments said during the days of the Orlando nightclub shooting (He said, “You know what, love doesn’t win, an AK-47 wins”) to completely eliminating the existence of trans people (He said in interview with Out Magazine, “You really expect me to believe that I shouldn’t laugh about trannies? It’s hilarious. Like, dude thinks he’s a woman? I’m not saying I want them to be locked up or castrated or God-knows-what. I want the opposite. But we can’t admit that it’s funny? Being gay is funny. Lesbians are fucking hilarious.”)

While any regular person would love for him to disappear, he clearly has no plans to. Also in the statement said to THR, he exclaimed, “Every line of attack the forces of political correctness try on me fails pathetically. I’m more powerful, more influential and more fabulous than ever before, and this book is the moment Milo goes mainstream. Social justice warriors should be scared — very scared.”
