Reality has broken through the Huffington Post’s Trump embargo.
An editorial mandate consigning the Republican presidential candidate to the website’s Entertainment page has been in place since July. Two articles on Trump posted Oct. 24, “A Tales of Two Bullies,” and “U.S. Should Charge to Protect Defense Welfare Clients: Donald Trump Got One Idea Right,” were posted to the website’s Politics page.
“After watching and listening to Donald Trump since he announced his candidacy for president, we have decided we won’t report on Trump’s campaign as part of the Huffington Post’s political coverage. Instead, we will cover his campaign as part of our Entertainment section. Our reason is simple: Trump’s campaign is a sideshow. We won’t take the bait,” Huffington Post editorial director Danny Shea announced on the website July 17.
Media watchdog Newsbusters first reported on the surreptitious change in policy Monday.
“Instead of licking their wounds by publicly eating humble pie and admit they were wrong, the Huffington Post seems to be very quietly placing Trump stories on their Politics page and hoping that nobody notices the change. Well, guess what? Your humble correspondent has noticed,” Newsbusters’ P.J. Gladnick wrote.

Nope! They didn’t grow up! Trump forced their hand is all.
Arianna Huffington wants Donald Trump, to interview, of course.
Yeah. Good point.
Oh shoot. Being on the entertainment page reach an entirely different facet of voters. Now he won’t get the “valley girl”vote /s
It’s a little late now; Trump is dropping out and Carson is soaring!! /s
Ha-ha.
HuffPo isn't a news site in the first place, it's more like a lurid checkstand tabloid in a vegan fair exchange third-world-imported-food co-op grocery store.
lol
I couldn’t figure out how to work in stuff about their ancestry. ;’)

I think I met that guy once. Very strange dude.
Really?
Yeah, I knew that P.J. Gladnick dude. Very weird guy. Like he is obsessed about food, especially seafood. He can spend hours talking on the subject. Also he works in his underwear. Does some strange impressions of animals like chickens, frogs, and fish. WEIRD DUDE.
