You mean the site founded by the person that helped start the fake Huffington Post site?

"Breitbart’s role as Drudge’s right hand is well known; less public was his brief, memorable stint as one of four partners in the Huffington Post in 2005. It’s a story that hasn’t been told in great detail, but BuzzFeed founder Jonah Peretti, who also co-founded the Huffington Post with the site’s namesake Arianna Huffington and media business figure Ken Lerer, recalled that period in an interview today."

The Huffington Post (sometimes abbreviated Huff Post or HuffPo) is an American online news aggregator and blog, that has both localised and international editions founded by Arianna Huffington, Kenneth Lerer, Andrew Breitbart,[3][4] and Jonah Peretti, featuring columnists.[5] The site offers news, blogs, and original content and covers politics, business, entertainment, environment, technology, popular media, lifestyle, culture, comedy, healthy living, women's interests, and local news.

Not sure what point you're trying to make. I don't read HuffPo very often but it's not fake news.
