Yiannopoulos: 'I'm Not Allowed To Say Movie Is Terrible When It Has A Black Actress In It?'

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) - Breitbart's Milo Yiannopoulos was suspended from Twitter following a fight on the social media network with Ghostbusters actress, Leslie Jones.

Yiannopoulos  told Rich Zeoli on Talk Radio 1210 WPHT that the skirmish began after he posted his negative review of the movie.

"She made a terrible film. Because I am one of life's givers, I saw it so you all don't have to. I wrote a 2000 word review, which is very good. You should find it Breitbart.com/milo. The funniest thing you'll read this month. I said that she was playing this cliche, hackneyed, 80's, dumb-as-ditch-water black stereotype, which I found to be weird in a social justice fueled movie, the only movie I've ever seen that seems to have been conceived entirely from spite at men. I said that she was spectacularly unappealing even by the standards of this film."

He continues to insist he did nothing wrong and that Jones is much too sensitive to criticism.

"She obviously read my review and didn't like it very much and she tweeted me, I'm reporting you, hope you lose your Twitter account in this terribly illiterate English. I just re-tweeted it and said 'America needs better schools. Sad!' Then she just went off on one. I tweeted a picture of her, and if you know what she looks like, you'll know what I mean. I just tweeted a picture with 'goodness gracious' or something along those lines: rejected by another black dude. She lost it. She went on this huge tirade and everybody's written it up and everyone's accusing me of marshaling a racist hate campaign. No, your movie sucked. I'm not allowed now to say a movie is terrible when it has a black actress in it? I'm sorry, no. That's not how this works."

"She is now the liberal darling and they're all writing to Jack Dorsey, trying to get my account suspended."
