Democracy Now Report: Newspaper Guild Calls for Boycott of Huffington Post
Newspaper Guild Calls for Boycott of Huffington Post

http://www.democracynow.org/2011/3/21/headlines/newspaper_guild_calls_for_boycott_of_huffington_post

The Newspaper Guild is urging its 26,000 members to stop providing free content to the Huffington Post website. The Guild said, "Working for free does not benefit workers and undermines quality journalism." The Huffington Post relies on a mix of paid professional journalists and unpaid bloggers. The site’s labor practices have come under increasing scrutiny since its $315 million merger with AOL.
