Romenesko LettersWhile Huffington Post bloggers type away for no pay,
Arianna Huffington "gets to hang out and be photographed with her celebrity friends at swell parties and mansions," writes
Gary Dretzka. "She should share the goodie bags and table scraps with her unpaid writers." He adds: "There is no meaningful union representation on the Internet [for bloggers]. ... In any case, thanks to HuffPo and other such operations, there aren't enough paid employees to constitute a workforce. With so many journalists willing to work for free (and, at times, I must include myself in this number), how difficult will it be to replace agitators, organizers and annoying beggars?"
