HuffPost Live: Watch TV With Trolls

The Huffington Post launched HuffPost Live this morning, a streaming video network with an ambitious format: 12 hours of live programming each weekday that incorporates the vast community of commenters and social platform users at HuffPost. So far, that’s translated into commenters being guests on the show via video chat, engaging in political discussions with the hosts. With an adequate amount of pre-screening, this could prove to be an excellent way to mine the resource that is HuffPost’s online user community.

Unfortunately there’s no pre-screening in the real-time commenting section that takes up the right half of the HuffPost Live webpage, a constant scroll of comments afforded the same amount of visual real estate as the streaming video.
