Conservative political activist Andrew Breitbart was a guest on the Rick Amato Show on February 8, 2012.  Andrew Breitbart discussed death threats against his life, most notably from the Occupy Movement, mere weeks before an untimely passing.  Coroners have yet to figure out a cause of death, but everyone will speculate in the coming weeks as to what happened.  Most news sources are citing an earlier heart condition and “natural causes”, but there is certainly room for speculation when dealing with such a “socially-charging” individual.  Tune in to watch one of Andrew Breitbart’s last phone interviews, seen only on WazilloMedia.com.
