Ms. Huffington Shills a Book She Didn't Write
but is basically taking credit for, anyway
 

Arianna was on The Daily Show last night shilling her her employees' book The Huffington Post's Complete Guide to Blogging. Two fun facts we learn during this interview:

• It took fifty Huffpost editors to write this book (Jesus how many editors are there? I guess you can hire a lot when the job compensation is zip)

• 50 thousand blogs are started every day.

Coincidence? Doubtful. Also: This means there are 1 thousand people starting a blog every day for every non-paid Huffington Post editor position. Makes you wish you went and got that degree at McDonald's Burger Academy instead of dropping $40,000 for that New Media major, huh?

I'm watching the episode on the DVR now. She said 50,000, not 50 million.
