All this time I thought that HuffPo was simply an outlet for celebrity trash-gossip
Why did it take me so long to realize that it's also a non-stop, gushing commercial for iPhones and iPads?

1. That is one nasty site
everything on there is either the most negative distorted information or fluff. nothing in between

2. Drudge and Breitbart helped her set it up originally
So she learned from the best in that regard.

Some of the columnists there are very good, though.

3. I can usually find one solid political article on HuffPo's front page each day (or so)
That is, an article with original content rather than a blurb with a link to Salon or whatever.

Other than that, the front page is dominated by articles about Snooki, Kim Kardassian, and what you can do to make your iPad even more trendy!!!1!1!!!
