Arianna Huffington’s politics and news blog The Huffington Post has topped Matt Drudge’s DrudgeReport according to the February comScore and Nielsen NetRatings, points out AllThingsDigital. The Huffington Post is a relative newcomer to the online media landscape, launching in May 2005. The site is made up of various news sources and columnists. According to an article by the New Yorker, Huffington Post generates $11 million each year and has 46 full-time employees.
Surrounding the news articles are the highly opinionated posts of an apparently endless army of both celebrity (Nora Ephron, Larry David) and non-celebrity bloggers – more than eighteen hundred so far. The bloggers are not paid.
Wikipedia has the list of the bloggers. I never realized how many there are.
New school vs. old school. Left vs. right.
