First fake news Buzzfeed, now Huffington Post. Another left wing, fake news publication has seen layoffs as left wing fake news doesn’t pay like it used it. Also eliminated from the Huffington Post is the opinions section. That’s really not much of a loss since the Huffington Post is nothing but left wing opinion anyway. Looks like Zsa Zsa Huffington sold out at the right time. The Huffinton Post is currently owned by Verizon. Good bye and good riddance.

For those who are wondering, @HuffPost Opinion — the entire section — is being eliminated. The beautiful, diverse, inclusive baby we built from scratch is gone.

Verizon is cutting about 800 jobs, or 7 percent of its media and advertising employees, as it reorganizes the troubled division. The wireless company had hoped to create an ad business that could compete with Google and Facebook. It spent roughly $10 billion buying up former Internet pioneers Yahoo and AOL. However, Verizon found benefits from integrating those two companies were less than expected. The company slashed the value of its media unit by nearly $5 billion in December. The new CEO of Verizon’s media division, Guru Gowrappan, informed employees of the layoffs in an email Wednesday. He says the division’s priorities will now include focusing on mobile and video products and stemming declines with desktop users.
According to Politico media reporter Michael Calderone, the number of unionized employees axed from the media company stands at 15 with more cuts scheduled to be announced.
