Arianna v. Tasini Now a Blog Fight
Huffington says Tasani gushed about site in email before going to court
A sarcastic and dismissive Arianna Huffington has taken to openly mocking a lawsuit filed by labor activist Jonathan Tasini, calling it "utterly without merit" and marked by "utter cynicism" while also revealing that she has compiled a group of emails from Tasini which effusively praise The Huffington Post's publishing model.
