Huffington Post Pulitzer Challenges Assumptions about Social Audiences
The Huffington Post may be hanging with The New York Times in the Pulitzer Prize club, but the pair couldn’t be more different:
- The Huffington Post. Started in 2005. Strictly online. (Technically, it’s a blog. The first ever to win a Pulitzer). Often mocked: Is it “real” journalism?
- The New York Times. Founded in 1851. Challenged by the online environment. Well-respected. Winner of more than 100 Pulitzer Prizes. The gold standard for journalism.
So it seems like The Huffington Post can’t possibly attend the same parties as The New York Times, right? Don’t be so sure.
