"Glupe plavuše novinarstva"

Ariana Hafington (Arianna Huffington), kreatorka veoma uspešnog blog portala Huffington Post, veoma je oštro kritikovala tradicionalne medije obraćajući se u sredu studentima na Jejlu.

“We are moving towards a hybrid future,” Huffington said, referring to a time when print, broadcast and online media are combined.
