Baker cooks up website

March 15, 2007 Off By pbrtv_admin


Former Pittsburgh and Erie newscaster Scott Baker is launching a video news website in partnership with Liz Stephans, a former editor at WTAE-TV’s thePittsburghChannel.com. Breitbart.TV is a spinoff of the news portal Breitbart.com and will feature a daily, live talk show hosted by Baker and Stephans, along with video clips from ABC, AP, Fox News and other outlets.

Baker and Stephans are already posting some video at the main Breitbart site, which was founded by “self-described right-leaning Hollywood basher” and former Drudge Report contributor Andrew Breitbart. Baker tells the Post-Gazette’s Rob Owen, however, that Breitbart.TV will only have a bias to “breaking news,” not to any political philosophy.
