The Huffington Post Is Banishing Donald Trump's Presidential Campaign to Its Entertainment Section
The website says it "won't take the bait" of covering his "sideshow" campaign seriously
The Huffington Post is refusing to cover Donald Trump as an actual political figure and instead is relegating everything related to his presidential campaign to its entertainment section.
The website announced the epic burn in a note posted Friday morning. "After watching and listening to Donald Trump since he announced his candidacy for president, we have decided we won't report on Trump's campaign as part of The Huffington Post's political coverage," Washington bureau chief Ryan Grim and editorial director Danny Shea wrote.
"Instead, we will cover his campaign as part of our Entertainment section. Our reason is simple: Trump's campaign is a sideshow. We won't take the bait. If you are interested in what The Donald has to say, you'll find it next to our stories on the Kardashians and The Bachelorette."
