I'm Waiting for Drudge's Book Club

Posted by on Wed, Sep 16, 2009 at 2:18 PM

According to Galleycat, Arianna Huffington is starting a book club and a new books page on the Huffington Post.

I'm a little nervous about Huffington Post's continuing attempts to branch into all things for all (liberal, mostly white) people—the comedy page is especially bad, but the green page appears to be edited by a Google alert for the word "green". Still, this Huffington Post books page could be partnering with New York Review of Books, so there is hope.

Don't hold your breath, Paul. Everybody knows, only Nazi Socialist Fascist Commie pinkos read books.

I believe Glenn Beck says as much on page 127 of his latest - oh, wait.

Nevermind.

Knowing the rest of her "site", it'll be a bunch of deepak chopra, anti-vaccinationist, and other anti-science books. Her site is intensely shitty and only marginally better than the Daily Beast.
