An Hour In A Room With Arianna Huffington (Guest Starring Biz Stone!)

As part of the AdTech conference yesterday, a gaggle of press got together to talk to Huffington Post Media Group's Arianna Huffington, a. k. a my bosses' boss and Tim Richards, VP of Ad Sales at AOL West Coast. While the cupcake and jelly bean-embellished media roundtable was billed as a discussion about vague stuff like "how to move and engage audiences" and the "importance of being authentic" we ended up talking lawsuit, layoffs and the difference between a blogger and a writer real fast. In the video Huffington, who is extremely charismatic, talks about her goal of setting a clear editorial direction for AOL, which now has 107 brands and 56 editorial properties post-Huffington Post acquisition, "Within a year you won't be able to tell whether a site originated as an AOL site or a Huffington Post site."
