Huffpo Announces Its Ripping Off ProPublica's Idea With A Fraction of the Money
ProPublica is an independent newsroom to fund investigative journalism. They work with about a $10 million dollar budget.
Huffpo announced today:
The popular blog is collaborating with The Atlantic Philanthropies and other donors to launch the Huffington Post Investigative Fund with an initial budget of $1.75 million. That should be enough for 10 staff journalists who will primarily coordinate stories with freelancers, said Arianna Huffington, co-founder and editor-in-chief of The Huffington Post.
So, does this mean the Drudge Report Investigation Fund will launch soon?
Meh.
