Stephen Colbert recently made fun of the Google vs. Bing debate, and now he’s taken on the Huffington Post’s content strategy, which has been in the news a lot since its acquisition by AOL.
"Huffpo is famous for its extensive, comprehensive coverage of things other people produced and put on the Internet," says Colbert.
"Until the Huffington Post pays me for re-purposing my content…I am happy to announce my brand new website, The ColBuffington Re-Post," Colbert proclaims. "It has got everything you love about the Huffington Post, because it’s the Huffington Post with a new border around it that says, ‘The Colbuffington Re-Post.’"
"Hopefully HuffPo will be a new source of revenue for AOL, whose income currently depends on 82 year old Delaware resident Claire Meyers and the $10 an hour she still pays for dial up service," he adds.
