Axelrod's Son Hired by Huffington Post
The Washington Post ^ | July 29, 2009 | Howard Kurtz

Posted on 07/29/2009 1:14:30 PM PDT by Baladas

David Axelrod's son is following his father's career path -- that is, the one he had before becoming a political strategist.

Ethan Axelrod is joining the Huffington Post, the liberal Web site that has been largely supportive of President Obama. His dad, now a White House senior adviser, was a Chicago Tribune reporter until he quit in 1984 to help run a Senate campaign (and still has a soft spot for newspapers, though his old one is in bankruptcy).

"I've been interested in journalism for a while," the 22-year-old Axelrod said Tuesday. "I heard through my father that they were expanding, so I applied for it."

Like moonbat father, like moonbat son. Doesn't surprise me in the least the old man has a "soft spot" for his own propoganda machines.

Yeah, be careful David, you don’t know what kind of side jobs Arianna has in store for you. And remember that Greek broads don’t shave.

Arianna was on some show last night talking crap and the discussion turned to the mortgage crisis. She brought up some program in Philadelphia which she thought was fabulous but, when pressed for the details, the idiot was so unprepared she couldn’t remember the name of the program or any of the finer points.

I thought to myself, if this airhead can be part of the media....they’ll take anyone. This latest news regarding Axelrod, Jr. confirms that thought.

Exactly. They are all in bed together anyway. I can’t believe the other half of the country buys into all this!!! Nuts, just plain insane.

She lives since decades in America, “runs” a “newspaper”, appears as a talking head on TV... yet she can't speak one sentence English. She's mumbling some gobbledygook without syntax or sense.

I read that the HuffPo lost about $4 million last year, and is on track to do even worse in 2009. Obviously, Ms. Huffington picked up a few million when her husband came out of the closet and they divorced, but her site is not sustainable over the long haul. There have also been rumors that investors are refusing to throw more money down down that black hole, and Ms. Huffington is now financing the venture with her own money.

and she couldn’t figure out her husband was gay
or maybe she thought if she didn’t think about it,
it would be all OK
