Breitbart API endpoint
Returns one Breitbart author/contributor's public profile: name, a short bio/role line when the page carries one, and their recent articles.
/breitbart/authorReturns one Breitbart author/contributor's public profile: name, a short bio/role line when the page carries one (Breitbart's template often uses this for a role like "Senior Writer" rather than a full biography, and many bylines carry none at all), and their recent articles.
Query parameters:
slug (optional): an author slug, e.g. joshua-klein.url (optional): a canonical https://www.breitbart.com/author/<slug>/ URL, optionally with a /page/<n>/ segment, as an alternative to slug.page (optional): 1-based page number of articles to return; defaults to 1, and overrides any page number already present in url.Exactly one of slug/url is required. The page carries no personal headshot or personal social handles -- the only social links present are site-wide Breitbart accounts, not the author's own -- so neither field is offered.
