After Trump's win, Breitbart expands in Europe

Breitbart News Network will expand in Europe, its editor said Wednesday.

The site already has a presence in the United Kingdom, but will expand into Germany and France, its editor, Alex Marlow, told Reuters.

"There's going to be more hiring that goes on – I'm already picturing more tech reporting, more media reporting," Marlow said. "We do a ton of politics reporting now so I don't know that we'll need to do more but we certainly aren't planning on scaling back with anything."

The Trump-boosting site's chairman is Stephen Bannon, who was the chief executive officer of the successful campaign of President-elect Donald Trump. Bannon took a leave from Brietbart to take the job with Trump over the summer.

The website has cultivated an audience amongst the so-called "alt-right" that supported Trump's campaign. The alt-right extends past the United States, however, and Trump is seen as having like-minded peers in the U.K.'s Nigel Farage of the United Kingdom Independence Party and France's Marine Le Pen of the National Front.

Both Farage and Le Pen praised Trump's election victory Wednesday.

"We now have a U.S. President who likes our country and understands our post-Brexit values," Farage tweeted. Farage was a prominent backer of Trump's campaign, and led the charge for years to get the United Kingdom to leave the European Union.

Le Pen also took to Twitter to praise Trump's victory, calling it part of a "great movement across world."
