The Missing Dirt On Arianna Huffington (Arianna: “The Dirt” Part I)

The Missing Dirt On Arianna Huffington

The New Yorker published its profile of Arianna Huffington. Though disappointingly far from the juicy takedown we hoped for, it does contain a few interesting nuggets. We learn, for example, that the Republican-divorcée-turned-internet-publisher bizarrely "hides" all three of her BlackBerrys in her bathroom at night, even though she lives only with a housekeeper and her two daughters. Her gay ex-husband Michael Huffington elaborates on how she knew of his interest in men before their marriage, saying, "in my Houston town house I sat down with her and told her that I had dated women and men so that she would be aware of it." And Huffington sounds downright proud of her lack of long-term friendships, saying, "I metabolize experiences fast." But there's so much missing, so much that should be in this 14-page story, starting first with how she runs the Huffington Post — would any male mogul be profiled at such length with so little said about how he runs his business? — and continuing through to juicer questions about her dating life and cultlike religious guru. A few specifics:

To fit in some of these topics, the New Yorker might have had to cut out the bits about Huffington's "considerable intelligence," her "seductive" charm and how she likes hiking, "yoga, meditation and prayer." But at least the magazine would have broken some significant new ground.

- - Al Franken and I shared a bed. Repeatedly. While we were both married. And, long before Pam and Tommy Lee or Paris Hilton, we always made sure we had a camera to record our liaisons. Shocking but true. What can I say... And the fact that it was being recorded for posterity only added to the frisson.

Is it true she tends toward hot younger men?

They must be on drugs or drunk. How could you have sex with that ugly ass woman when you're sober?

This was taken at a GOP fund raiser back when the parasite was posing as a Republican. My daughter was around six years old at the time and still remembers being creeped out by Huffington. We sat with Huffington and her daughters at the dinner. Huffington feigned interest in my daughter but she was an obvious phony. Huffington is possibly the most opportunistic person in modern history. She is absolutely without a soul.

Was HuffPo biased toward Obama?

I didn’t like her when she was an alleged conservative. She was clearly a total phony and I was annoyed with fellow conservatives who thought she was some sort of icon.

Two friends of mine (married) lived in California during the Huffington/Boxer race in 1994. For Halloween they dressed as Michael Huffington and Barbara Boxer. Each wore a sign listing the “top 5 reasons not to vote for [the other candidate]”.

Among the reasons not to vote for Michael Huffington was “he beats his wife. Have you listened to her speak? A lot of blows to the head will do that to someone”.

She can't be all bad if she spits her "bacci" juice in a bottle instead of onto the floor.

Taking A Hatchet To Arianna Huffington: Some Tips

Huff-1A New Yorker journalist is calling around for a story on the "Real Arianna Huffington," the Post reported. The scribe is supposedly asking about the allegedly ballooning value of the Huffington Post, recently pegged at $200 million, and about whether publisher Huffington is a "cutthroat boss." Perhaps the New Yorker writer — former New York Post man Ken Auletta? — should ring up HuffPo senior editor Rachel Sklar, who just last night aired news that Huffington spiked her story about MSNBC because she wants to tightly control how politics is discussed on her site. From Sklar's message on Jim Romenesko's Poynter.org forum:

This post was originally written for "Eat The Press' at the Huffington Post, but it was determined that the post was not "congruent with HuffPost's editorial position against the media's penchant for viewing everything through a left/right prism" (see here). With respect, I disagreed, and together we decided that the piece would be best placed elsewhere. Thanks to Jim for that opportunity.

More suggestions for the New Yorker:

She was always a money grubbing whore.

Nothing has changed.

She sold herself to Huffington and sold herself to Soros and no doubt many people in between.

She must have a thing for gay men. Booker is clearly in that category.

Just a pretty boy who was promoted by the Orca and the same libs who promoted the One.

When she is at home she uses her real accent - pure Fargo.

I got no verification - sue me.

This woman is a total airhead. Proof that anyone can be a liberal celebrity. No talent required.

Years ago, I read her biography of Picasso and found it awkward, overlapping, and confusing. She seemed to think the reader knew as much about the intricacies of the subject as she did.

There was a hilarious scene when she was running for CA governor against Arnold. She actually crashed one of his appearances, attemping to confront him, and succeeded in knocking over some microphones. She looked like the boob that she is.
