Once the flagship of Internet services, AOL now occupies the corner booth in the Internet flea market. In an attempt to revive its fall from the stars, AOL has purchased the Huffington Post and anointed Arianna Huffington, co-founder of the Huffington Post, president and editor-in-chief of the new and improved AOL.
What's that, you say? "Forgive them, for they know not what they do." Aha, but there is silver to be made by joining the "dark side" and it doesn't get any darker then the loony-left Huffington Post. "Hmm, do I smell George Soros lurking somewhere behind this?"
It would appear AOL has sold themselves to a new master to pump up the bank account, at the expense of their souls, a perfect example of unbridled capitalism lacking a shred of moral fiber.
Friggin shame what has happened to AOL. I have a soft spot for them becuase I made a TON of money riding their stock in the 1990’s -runs up to 70 then split - another run up to 75 and a split - another run to 70 and another split. It was beautiful.........
That dingdong has turned out to be quite the businesswoman. How many millions did she get? For a left wing kook site, no less. AOL has been crap since they raped Time Warner.
So exactly, who bought out who?
So what would be a good name for AOL now?
The A should probably be Arianna -what about the O and L?
Arianna O......... L...........(AOL)
Now, they stand to be even MORE offensive to us conservative users (who have a wide variety of free email choices), so it will be interesting to see how long they (we) hang around, once they start the uber-socialist pot-banging and malignant hate-rhetoric about everything I like.
A fake ISP takes over a fake news site. Nothing to see here folks, please move along......
