The self-described professional troll attempted to manage the PR disaster this morning with a statement on Facebook, insisting that his comments were taken out of context.
I am a gay man, and a child abuse victim, Yiannopouloswrote on his Facebook page Monday. I would like to restate my utter disgust at adults who sexually abuse minors.
Yiannopoulos went on to say that he was horrified by pedophilia, adding that hes outed three of them, in fact three more than most of my critics.

The effort was however to no avail. In short order, Yiannopoulos wasdisinvited from his plum speaking gig at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC), and lost his$250,000 book deal with Simon & Schuster. In addition, rumors swirled this afternoon that his job at Breitbart is in jeopardy.
People were quick to bash Coulters remarks.
@AnnCoulter does being this fucking stupid hurt? Is it just like a constant migraine?

@AnnCoulter did you really type this yourself? I pray for you. And hope you fill the hole in you with something more than hate.
