Milo Yiannopoulous, the former Breitbart writer who repeatedly collaborated with white supremacists, has been making appearances on Sky News Australia, a television company owned by News Corp Australia. It is, effectively, the Murdoch-owned Australian edition of Fox News.

Yiannopoulous has started his own media company, Milo INC, which Robert Mercer is funding. Mercer has emerged as the most important funder of the far right: he made billions with his quantitative hedge fund called Renaissance Technologies, and bankrolls Breitbart as well as Trump’s campaign and legal funds.

In his most recent appearance on Sky News Australia, Yiannopoulous advanced a wild conspiracy about the Las Vegas mass shooting that left 59 people dead. Yiannopoulous said there was an “extraordinary lack of curiosity in the media” about the shooting because the perpetrator was a white man. He said the media “stopped asking about the security guard who went missing and then appeared on Ellen.” During that appearance, Yiannopoulous said, the guard was “sweating and panting like he’d been briefed to say certain things and not to say others.” He added that “Ellen, of course, has a relationship with the hotel chain.”
