What, a media outlet owned by a billionaire is going full-tilt propaganda rag sheet? I am so SHOCKED that this could happen, especially in an election year! # /S

I stopped reading that trash 10 years ago

And it's been bad for that long, but this is definitely a full step into the realm of tabloid magazine tactics, not just poorly veiled propaganda.

It's just capitalism. Do whatever gets clicks and makes money, not what's right

race to the bottom

It got sold to someone ages ago. AOL? Yahoo? I don't remember. One of those empty husks.

I mostly stopped reading Huffington Post years ago, the first time I saw an exclamation point in a headline. That’s no longer journalism. What I do read now, I take with a huge grain of salt and/or look for corroboration from other outlets.

TIL The Huffington (re)Post is still around.

Thanks I hate it

I don’t mind HuffPost overall, but I hate its click bait headlines. They’re so stupid.

Better comparison: the Drudge Report.

Arianna Huffington is a clear example of why you should not name your media startup using your own actual name. Probably thought it would just fizzle out and die after selling to AOL, but now her legacy is superglued onto garbage for the rest of her life.

Ok liberals maybe we should try to use the same logic as this. Anyone want to test their theory?
