ABC News announced Tuesday that it is dropping controversial blogger Andrew Breitbart from its Election Night coverage.
The network announced late last week that Breitbart, who became notorious for his role in disseminating the out-of-context footage of Shirley Sherrod that resulted in her firing, would be a guest during its coverage of the midterm election results.
