The Huffington Post has raised an additional $25 million in venture funding, according to a report this morning by Kara Swisher of AllThingsD. In a subsequent post, she reports that the Huff Post has formally announced the news.
In January, I interviewed Huff Post investor and board member Eric Hippeau of SoftBank about the value of the media property for venture capitalists. I've republished the interview today.
Update 12/2: Ad Age's Michael Learmonth says that Huff Post now has more value than some big newspaper companies.
