What kind of quality control does the Huffington Post have? I mean, this blogger of theirs, who calls himself "Baron Stefan de Rothschild", appears to be a complete fake, probably a long-time hoaxer named Stefan Roberts who's set up numerous fake websites pretending to be part of the British nobility, a hedge-fund billionaire, and now a member of the Rothschild family -- that last has such a terribly incompetent portrait photo that it stands out from the rest of the one scattered about the page.
If you think this means traditional media has a leg up, not necessarily so, since someone at the Washington Post was fooled into adding to a news blog entry (see about halfway down) the fake "Rothschild Estates" pledge of money to Haiti.
