All Bow Down To The New Lord and Master Of Comics Alliance

AOL is buying leading political website The Huffington Post for $315 million. As part of the deal, Arianna Huffington will be president and editor-in-chief of all AOL blog content.

Which includes Asylum, Techcrunch and… the popular comics blog Comics Alliance.

What effect will this power structure bring? Probably very little. Comics Alliance certainly seems to fall into step politically with Huffington, and with horror stories I heard regarding pressures from AOL's content management people, this could well be a breath of fresh air for Laura Hudson and company.

Just don't expect James Hudnall to suddenly start writing for the site.

Full disclosure: I applied for the lead writer position at Comics Alliance when it was being set up (along with many others) but withdrew when Bleeding Cool was offered.
