HuffPo Merges with TMZ
“The Huffington Post, which began in 2005 with a meager $1 million investment and has grown into one of the most heavily visited news Web sites in the country, is being acquired by AOL in a [$315 million] deal that creates an unlikely pairing of two online media giants.” [NYT]

And damn, somebody there already won the thread: “You’ve Got Fail!”
AOL? How retro chic.
Ariana got richer. The end.
I guess rightfully, I should have put my comment in this thread, but I didn’t even look this low.
The bigger story is that AOL still exists. Next we’re gonna find out that MySpace is still around, as if.

the only people I know who use it call it GAY-OL
