http://blogcritics.org/ A sinister cabal of superior bloggers on music, books, film, popular culture, politics, and technology - updated continuously. en Copyright 2005-2007 by the authors Mon, 14 Apr 2008 06:41:54 EDT http://backend.userland.com/rss Blogcritics.org custom software http://blogcritics.org/archives/2005/05/10/032013.php#comment-710244 My inevitable response: I WROTE THIS BLEEPING ARTICLE NEARLY 3 YEARS AGO. Jeez. The Huffington Post in many ways is a radically different site today. I stand by this post as it was in 2005. If I were to write a review today, THREE YEARS LATER, it'd be very different. I now regularly read that site. Incidentally, I feel it stopped being anything like a blog about 2 years ago. If it makes Arianna feel better to call it that, that's fine. But it's an Internet newspaper now, and has more in common with the NY Times than a site like Blogcritics. Because many sites change a lot in THREE YEARS. I'm not really trying to be mean here, but your comment was written as if you thought I'd just posted this. I was astonished there was a new comment at all. 710244@blogcritics.org Mon, 14 Apr 2008 06:41:54 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2005/05/10/032013.php#comment-710217 Sorry, I meant $200,000,000.00(200 Million) dollars. My apology for that typo. 710217@blogcritics.org Mon, 14 Apr 2008 01:47:04 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2005/05/10/032013.php#comment-710216 I am surprised that your write-up did not give Huffington post a thumb's up. I am not a fan of theirs but I have had the liberty to read up stuff on their website and I think I liked what I read with a future note to self to revisit and read up more stuff. You are probably alone in your assessment. The last time I checked their alexa ranking, Huffington post was about 1,440+. You will agree with me that that is pretty much remarkable. How come the Washington post and other reputable businesses are fighting to advertise their. Also, I was reliably informed that www.malltropolitan.com is considering advertising their too. In case you didn't know, http://www.malltropolitan.com is a new upscale mall that offers upto 80% of MSRP of goods. Though nascent, it is gradually gaining reputation amongst shopper. Now you agree with me that the majority of bloggers and liberals out there do not necessarily agree with your assessment of the Huffington post. Mind you, I was told by a very close associate that Huffington post, because of its unabashed leftwing position, its value has now skyrocketed by over 2000% to a healthy estimate of plus or minus $200,000. I guess you never took these factors into consideration. Who cares if you wake up every morning to write a mumbo jumbo? so long as your mumbo jumbo is accepted guaged by its financial success. I await your inevitable response to this comment. 710216@blogcritics.org Mon, 14 Apr 2008 01:42:30 EDT
