Arianna Huffington plans culture and politics webzine

Arianna Huffington is planning a new online publishing venture, the Huffington Report, Business 2.0 reports.

Based in New York and staffed with a full complement of editors, the Huffington Report appears to be a culture and politics webzine in the classic mold of Salon or Slate. It will have breaking news, a media commentary section called "Eat the Press," and its most interesting innovation, a group blog manned by the cultural and media elite: Sen. Jon Corzine, Larry David, Barry Diller, Tom Freston, David Geffen, Vernon Jordan, Gwyneth Paltrow, and Harry Evans and his wife, Tina Brown. That's just to name a few, and Huffington is still recruiting.

In an e-mail to potential writers, Huffington said, "The idea is that the members of our blog will weigh in whenever the spirit moves them: when a news story makes you mad, when you see a movie or read a book that turns you on, or when you have a cause that you don't think is getting the coverage it deserves. And we're not just talking about politics -- this blog will be about politics and entertainment and money and sports and religion. Anything and everything."
