The selling continues today on high volume.

AOL bought HuffPost a few months back for $300M. I bet they regret it now.

Check out the comments on the AOL message board on Yahoo. MANY people are blaming Arianna and the liberals for their stock losses.

AOL merged once overestimating its own worth.

It’s a small silver lining in our troubles.

Things suck! You suck! It is your fault they suck! You want to hurt the old people! You don't like gays or those transgendered things and you want to make granny eat dog food! You made the S&P downgrade the country! Did I mention that you suck! And you won't give us free health care and condoms and pay for great art like crosses in urine! And you Tea Party people hate the black people! Yea!

$300 million and all that got was what I just wrote. ---FOR FREE!

I’m hoping for a market upturn but I do hope this POS goes straight to penny stock territory

It would almost be fun for Conservatives to buy a majority share and begin changing everything so the libs hate it.

Almost - it would be a waste of money in the long run.

But it would sure be fun to do. :)

Can we all agree to call it Huffpoo for short?

Let's see. Hummm. Communist based Lefties trying to run collective style Capitalist business plan = instant fail.

What these useful Progressive Tools don't understand is they are minor league and are being lied to.

For example, look at Soros and yes, ManBearPig (although his Chicago Carbon Exchange is now all but finished, hence his cussing and ranting lately). They are really Capitalists!

Useful fools, all of em.

I agree with the above comment. ‘HuffPOO’ is appropriate.

HuffPOO it may be, but she walked away with $300 Million..........CASH!

Even she didn't want their stock.

To anyone who is still stuck as an AOL user, be advised they do have a free plan which provides the same email service (without dial up) and it's easy to convert online.

Looks like 20M...which looks to be 20% of float.

But that was of a few days ago. After the last couple of days I'm sure it's more.

I hope that AOL will regret buying Huffington Post very much! I dislike the news there!
