Colbert Steals Entire Huffington Post
In its feud with the Colbert Report, the Huffington Post is trying to give as good as it gets. In a stab against the Huffington Post for using his online videos on its site without paying for them, comedian Stephen Colbert this week re-posted the entire Huffington Post as a new website, calling it the “Colbuffington Re-Post.”

In his commentary against the HuffPost, Colbert criticized the site’s penchant for aggregating online content, including videos from his own website. He called his Re-Post “a Russian nesting doll of intellectual theft.”
The struggling internet company AOL recently bought the Huffington Post for $315 million and put Arianna Huffington in charge of all AOL editorial content. The merger has drawn fire because of, among other things, the HuffPost's reliance on unpaid bloggers.
