Every time I read about these “journalists” I think of a) Michael Yon and b) all the free publishing advice available on the internet.
Second, I have read blurbs on authors, bloggers, journalists that mentioned “contributor to The Huffington Post.” Is every article submitted to HuffPo accepted? If not, these people got something, an editor reviewed, accepted and published work on the CV or resume.
“contributor to The Huffington Post.”
Same thing as “Contributor to the septic tank”
