Visual Art Source Publisher Bill Lasarow Launches HuffPost Boycott

Bill Lasarow, publisher and co-editor of the LA-based website Visual Art Source, has declared himself and his website on strike against the Huffington Post. Lasarow says he was aware HuffPo did not pay for content when he accepted an offer to syndicate his site’s stories on HuffPo last year. But he’s fed up with that arrangement now.

While he doesn’t say so explicitly, we imagine Lasarow’s about-face may have something to do with knowing Arianna Huffington now has $315 million floating around in AOL-dollars.
