Dan Froomkin hired by The Huffington Post

It is not journalism that is dying -- only the staid, establishment-serving, stenography model of the WashPost.

    Congratulations, Dan!

    I'm pleased (but not surprised) that Froomkin was immediately snatched up. I'm also not surprised that Arianna Huffington has the media acumen to quickly make an offer and negotiate a deal. I'm pretty confident that she will not impinge on Froomkin's autonomy, as it is that quality that will drive readers to the (new) Post.

    Now, if they would just make the website more intuitive and user-friendly (just my $.02).
