Huffington Post Hits TV Overload

Everywhere you looked Thursday, HuffPost was being mentioned on the tube.

From "Entertainment Tonight" to "Countdown," "Ugly Betty" to "30 Rock," January 8th seemed to be Mention HuffPost Day. We never got the memo.

But there it was — some factual, some newsy, and some going for the laugh.

Our vote for funniest: Sen. James Inhofe's stumbling, bumbling rant on the Senate floor. "Huffman"? She's on Desperate Housewives, Senator.

I am so glad that I discovered the Huff Post.
I should thank my former employer that relieved me of my duties, just because they could.
That "afforded" me the opportunity to explore what I missed when I was working on sustaining my career.
That "At Will" policy is so friendly for the corporations, or companies, thay can fire you for absolutely no reason. Really!!!

Let's see when "The Simpsons" mentions HuffPo. Cast member Harry Shearer already blogs.

The Huffington women are everywhere. Even as an "International" Debutante in recent New York Sunday Times photo spread. Who knew they still did that---but to each her own!!!

[captainindustry]

Remember, you read it first, here on the Huffington Post!!!!!

Keep on rockin' in the free world Huffington Post. The numerous instances of mention are indicative of the change that is taking place in media.

The Huffington Post has been mentioned in several letter's to the editor in the local newspaper here. I usually read HuffPost before the paper or anything else. I like it.

Keith has been mentioning Huffingtonpost for quite a while.

His show is still the BEST on the air and funny thing, when I tell people I watch him, they don't laugh, they agree that he is the best.

Funny thing about some tr olls. They love to make these broad sweeping comments claiming to be speaking for everyone.

KO is still the best and Rachel bless her heart is still going to take a very long time to even come close to being able to fill his shoes.

[evanrkg]

KO and Rachel are liberal media-hacks. They're just as bad as O'Reilly and Hannity.

[jem286]

They're the same as O'Reilly and Hannity, just on the left. Also, they have the truth on their side.

[derekc06]

except for the fact that they don't twist facts or flat out make them up... nor are they racist homophobes­...

Hmmm. No posts about Mr Olbermann on this blog in days I guess we gotta admit he's over like GWB and 2008. People laugh at me if I admit to watching his show, so his schick is wearing thin even on campus. No sober adults takes him serioulsy anymore. TIme to move on - thanks for the fifteen minutes, bro

[MNinWI]

Nice try, troll.

[paragrafH]

The only thing Huffpost lacks is humility! And why is the STILL nowhere to make comments/criticism of Huffpost coverage or suggestions?

[Mustang Sally]

They used to have that in the "Contact Us" section. Did it go away?

[funkulous]

Bottom of page, right side, very small font. It may take awhile to get a response, though, as most HPo employees are currently patting themselves on the back via the above mentioned television programs. That is when they're not formulating a new shock-story headline.

[dkuz09]

Huffpost is doin big things in the 09 I see!! That 30 Rock bit WAS funny though lol

[Df7702]

Thanks for telling me something I already knew.

[SamEllison]

From one of our own too!
