Arianna Huffington Shows Commitment to Diversity at Black Journalists' Conference

Huffington Post Media Group Editor-in-Chief Arianna Huffington was a keynote speaker Thursday at the National Association of Black Journalists convention in Philadelphia.

After her address to a crowd of more than 1,000 journalists, I planted myself near the platform and introduced myself to Huffington, who oversees several media enterprises, including the 800-plus daily community news Patch.com sites.

Guess, what? Huffington was very gracious and agreed to take a picture with me.

Here I am with Arianna Huffington. (I put in a good word, of course, for Cascade Patch and southwest Atlanta).
