Any thoughts on the Huffington/AOL merger?


I understand that the agreement gives Arianna a large amount of control over AOL content. That can't be good.

I figure this will move HuffPo to the right, sooner or later, as yet-another FCM publishing articles to pander to advertisers.

LOL...

They would lose all their loony readers, like you, if they did that.

Not a chance. Huff-n-puffers would huff-n-puff like there's no tomorrow.

I never knew the Huffinton Post was so important to "conservatives." AOL too? Haven't used that shit since grade school.

Darrin, it wouldn't surprise me if you wear shoes with velcro straps and get all your liquid from juice boxes.

Shut the fuck up.

Ariana's brand suffers from association with AOL but she is generously compensated for the inconvenience, in addition to being named editor-in-chief.

Back when she was Sen. Huffington's wife, Ariana Huffington was alledgedly conservative.

Lets see. AOL had the internet locked up and
screwed it up. Then they joined hands with
TW and screwed it up. So now they are
going to buy, an appropriate word, Huffington
and be a success(?).

Losers, I guess are like, birds of a feather? :downspin::toast:rollin
