From WSJ, 1/2017: "Mr. Breitbart introduced the Mercers to his friend Mr. Bannon, a former Goldman Sachs Group Inc. investment banker. Mr. Bannon drew up a business plan and term sheet under which the Mercer family bought nearly 50% of Breitbart News for $10 million, according to public filings and people familiar with the matter."
"Mercer's ties to Bannon date to at least to 2011, when Bannon's conservative Breitbart News network was struggling financially, and Mercer made a $10 million equity investment, according to a person with knowledge of the matter." |
