The saga continues with rush of ‘New’ blood
REVIEW. No matter how this review of ‘New Moon’ ends, whether this critic loves or loathes the film, is irrelevant. If you’re one of the legions of “Twi-Hards,” you’ll be stepping on heads to see it this weekend anyway.

NEW YORK.  Arianna Huffington, co-founder and editor-in-chief of The Huffington Post, will serve as guest editor for Metro US Wednesday.

"Arianna Huffington is one of the best known and most relevant media personalities in the United States and we are delighted that she has agreed to act as Guest Editor for the day," said Tony Metcalf, the editor-in-chief of Metro US. "Her unique insight, knowledge and contacts will be a superb addition to Metro."

Huffington launched The Huffington Post, a news and blog site that has quickly become one of the most widely read, linked to, and frequently-cited media brands on the Internet, in 2005.  The renowned syndicated columnist, who has appeared on such television programs as The Oprah Winfrey Show, Nightline, Real Time with Bill Maher, Larry King Live, Hardball, Good Morning America and the Today show, is also a prolific author who has published a total of twelve books. 
 
"I’m often asked about working online versus working in print," Huffington said. "And I always say that it shouldn’t be an either/or proposition.  Whatever the platform, it’s all about having interesting content and delivering it in a compelling manner.  I’m looking forward to working with the Metro staff to bring their readers my take on the day’s news."
