Breitbart (AP)
Andrew Breitbart, the outspoken conservative writer, activist and website operator, has died unexpectedly in Los Angeles. He was 43.
Breitbart was pronounced dead at the UCLA Medical Center shortly after midnight, the Los Angeles County coroner's told Yahoo News.
His website, BigJournalism.com, announced his death early Thursday.
"Andrew passed away unexpectedly from natural causes shortly after midnight this morning in Los Angeles," the note on his website reads. "We have lost a husband, a father, a son, a brother, a dear friend, a patriot and a happy warrior. Andrew lived boldly, so that we more timid souls would dare to live freely and fully, and fight for the fragile liberty he showed us how to love."
It's unclear what those natural causes were. A representative for the website did not immediately return a request for more information.
