Arianna Huffington: Bonjour! Le Huffington Post, an international collaboration bringing together Le Monde, Les Nouvelles Éditions Indépendantes, and the Huffington Post Media Group's signature mix of news, blogging, community, and social engagement, arrives today. While we will be importing the platform, technology, and tools from across the pond, Le Huffington Post will be rooted in French culture and will reflect France's own unique personality, rich culture, and diversity of voices. And it will do so at a time when France's fortunes, challenges, and decisions are of great consequence not only to the people of France but to all of Europe and the world beyond. For me, today's launch is the culmination of a lifetime of loving France and I'm delighted to invite readers in France and French speakers throughout the world -- as well as those who care about its people, issues, and rich culture -- to join the conversation. BLOG POSTS | Anne Sinclair: Who We Are Le Huffington Post will be a place to celebrate, debate, argue, imagine and inform. The media, in whatever form, is essential to the health of a democracy. And our team is united in our plans to be a small but essential part of this. | | Robert Kuttner: Obama's Mixed Messages President Obama is planning to strike a "populist" note in his State of the Union Address and in his re-election campaign. But economic populism would be a lot more credible if it had been the consistent message and program of his presidency. | | Mark L. Walberg: What I've Learned on Antiques Roadshow I will never be an expert on antiques. I will never be able to tell you if Ben Franklin once sat in that chair, or if it's from Ikea circa last Tuesday. But thanks to the people I meet on the road, I am beginning to learn what is truly valuable. | | Klaus Schwab: Beating the Burnout After a year characterized by major upheavals, many feel like we are watching a global system disintegrate: financial and debt crises, unemployment, political paralysis, social inequality, food and energy crises, and the list goes on. There is an urgent need for leaders to act. | | Patricia Zohn: Jules and Jim -- and Catherine Today marks the 50th anniversary of Francois Truffaut's Jules and Jim. | | |
