I despise The Huffington Post's "AOL-esque" headlines, like "Guess what made Anne sob on a plane?"
or "This has actually never happened to me!"

Give me a headline that describes the story, not some bullsh*t tabloid-like eye-grabber that means nothing.

I know THP has been going downhill for quite a while, but it really is trashy now. Arianna shouldn't have sold out.

Anyone else have any opinions?

1. I've despised Huffington Post for ages
Even before she sold it. Its trashy and publishes about as much scientific illiterate stuff as ANY Fox channel does. I've long regarded it as a left wing version of Fox News. Read it and your intelligence drops about 10 IQ points.
