That would be Roy Huffington, right? Founder and CEO of the Huffington Oil Company. Arianna is nothing if not an opportunist. Andrew Breitbart helped her start Huffpo before he left to start Breitbarrt. He said never underestimate her.

Yes, Roy Huffington. I had a friend who helped build the company...was one of the first people hired by Roy. I heard a lot of good stories! He did the eulogy at my friend's funeral. That's where I talked to him. He was very nice.

I always thought it was ironic that his $$$ was seed money for Huff Post and his name was on it. It is so foreign to his thinking. :)

Arianna's main claim to fame ... she is/was an expert on Picasso...IIRC.

Do you remember when Michael ran for the senate in CA? IIRC, he was conservative but they were still married and she probably cost him the election because she was discovered to be involved with a cult or something weird.

Remembering the little I do...and knowing how liberal she is now, I wonder if she did it on purpose.
