Villa and Ciaran Clark in particular make the front page of "The Huffington Post" website

Strange.  It's supposed to be a preview of the weekend's games yet shows a picture from yesterday's match.

What is the Huffington Post?  It appears to have gained sudden popularity.  I can see from the website that it is an online paper but who is it owned by, what is its agenda (if there is one)?

Thanks.  I'll add it to my favourites and check it out.
It's kind of set out like the Guardian's website.  I'm sure they completed umpteen tests on it's usability but I find that there's just too much information on the screen to absorb it all.

p.s. apologies for taking this way off topic.

Don't bother with it. A propaganda organ for lefties.

It looks as though that is what he was after.

When I lived in the USA in the 90's Arianna Huffington used to appear on quite a few political talk shows and was a rabid right winger. She must have had a Road to Damascus moment somewhere along the line.

Back in the 70s, Arianna Huffington was called Arianna Stassinopoulos, and was a stalwart of UK panel game shows like Call My Bluff and My Music

I started this thread on Sunday. HP is regularly updated, so the Villa pic is gone now. FYI is was a pic of Ciaran's back headed goal

...as opposed to a propaganda sheet for right-wingers like the rest of the 'free' press.

But then again, Genghis Khan is considered a bit of a leftie in the US.

Probably.
