That’s really going to cut into the comment content on HuffPo, maybe 99%.
It actually has. When I heard about it, I cruised over to HuffPost and noted that whereas before there would be hundreds of comments now they routinely come in at less than 100. Even hot topic stories/commentaries are only pulling 200 to 300 comments.
And all of this against the back drop of the recent story that AOL which bought HuffPost still hasn’t had a profitable year with HuffPost.
