In the reorganization of AOL and the Huffington Post into the Huffington Post Media Group, the company succumbed to layoffs and consolidated AOL news sites into the Huffington Post, folding or shutting down thirty properties. While a number of staffers were let go in this round of layoffs, what about the freelancers? It has been speculated that their time at AOL may be over, though it has remained largely unclear as to how freelancers for the properties in question will officially be treated going forward under the new media group.Today, Peter Goodman, editor for business and technology news for the Huffington Post, held a conference call for freelance business writers for AOL properties, and we were fortunate enough to get the inside scoop on what was discussed from a freelancer (who shall remain anonymous) on the call.
