A senior editor at a conservative website has resigned after a furore over comments that appear to condone paedophilia.

Milo Yiannopoulos said in a statement his "poor choice of words" was detracting from his colleagues' work, so he was quitting immediately.

He had already lost a book deal and a speaking engagement over the row.

Videos surfaced of him discussing the merits of gay relationships between adults and boys.

But Mr Yiannopoulos, the tech editor, denied he had endorsed child abuse and said one video had been edited to give a misleading impression.

"I would like to restate my utter disgust at adults who sexually abuse minors," the 32-year-old wrote in his resignation statement on Facebook on Tuesday.

But it came too late to save him from being axed in the line-up at the Conservative Political Action Conference in Maryland.

The organising group, the American Conservative Union, said his response had been "insufficient".

Publisher Simon & Schuster also cancelled his forthcoming book, Dangerous.

The British writer appears to thrive on controversy and is accused by some of being a peddler of hate speech.

Mr Yiannopoulos was banned from Twitter after provoking online harassment of a black actress, Leslie Jones, from the Ghostbusters remake.

The University of Berkeley in California earlier this month cancelled a talk by Mr Yiannopoulos, following violent student protests.

I've said it before. The Radical Left will never stop at one. They will try to destroy every person who dares to challenge their established cult.

While I disagree with Milo's comments, I still support him. I hope he continues to speak out for our First Amendment Rights.

    hey, i thought the Left were the cucks now its establishment republicans? 

     

    anyway i'm sure milo knows that at this point in the game he has to go full on gg or scale back, i don't buy that he wasn't asked by bb to resign. i don't buy that he's too terribly upset about any other this either (brave? lol) milo's goal is to offend every reader; for the sake of protecting the 1st? hell naw. milo wants to offend because that's what get him trending, that's his whole entire song and dance. he's in heaven right now and i'm sure foresees nothing but bigger and better things for himself. breitbart was a stepping stone. i just hope milo knows the whole shock thing is so played out. just ask tom green.

    It can be challenging to keep up with as it changes from moment to moment. Yesterday is was Nordstroms and before that Kelloggs,  I wish they would make up their mind, I need clean shorts and breakfast and I am not sure who I am boycotting

    maybe it's easier to create a "safe" list, but we have to be absolutely certain they're safe..off the top of my head nambla fits the bill.
