The campaign of Democratic presidential candidate Beto O'Rourke removed a reporter from Breitbart News at an event held at a South Carolina college on Aug. 27, saying that he was being asked to leave because he was “disruptive” in the past—something the news outlet denies.

Breitbart News reported that their Senior Editor-at-Large Joel Pollak, who has previously covered two O’Rourke events, was asked to leave at an event at Benedict College, where O'Rourke was expected to deliver a speech.
