I doubt it. Show me a link so I can do what you republican nutters never do, and apply critical thinking to whatever bullshit you send my way.

One more follow up. Their FB page is more active than CNN beause they post substantially more junk. CNN posted 732 articles while Breitbart posted 3000. The difference is that CNN actually tries to fact check and practice solid journalism. Breitbart finds a single email and then writes a bullshit article as if it's groundbreaking earth shattering news. And of course the dummy conservatives on FB eat it up.

Assertion not supported by link.
Here, I will do your homework for you. This is what you are looking for.. Except there is a flaw in this. Unique visitors are not actual unique visitors. This doesn't account for one person who views the website on Chrome, Firefox, their cell phone, their tablet, and their work computer. That number is probably closer to 1/2 to 1/3 of that.
Nor does it tell you just how long people are engaged on the site. Most of the news on that site is crap, and probably engages people for as long as they can get the person to read down to how Hillary Clinton was a satantic pedophile cult leader or some stupid shit like that which it loves to peddle.
In addition, that number is based on the 31 days mostly all leading up to, including, and the immediate days after the election. Something that happens every four years. In fact, really only every eight years when there isn't a re-election and the position is more hotly contested.
You might as well pick Black Friday as your data-point to assert how the shopping malls are doing boffo business.
The site does >>> NOT <<< have 45,000,000 active regular readers. It is probably closer to less than 10,000,000. Their "boycott" doesn't even have 1/3 of a million pledged. Oh and that includes junk signatures like "fuck-your-boycot@fuckoff.com" that I signed myself about ten times by hitting the back button and re-submitting.
Sorry for applying critical reasoning skills again to shit all over you.
