Huffington launches an investigative journalism fund

Arianne Huffington has launched the Huffington Post Investigative Fund today.

Writing on the site,she says that

This nonprofit Fund will produce a wide-range of investigative journalism created by both staff reporters and freelance writers.
adding that

all who recognize the indispensable role good journalism plays in our democracy are looking for ways to preserve it during this transitional period for the media.


It is an admiral step from the Huffington Post's founder and she is obviously putting the full weight of the organisation behind it with a starting fund of $1.75m.

So if you have any ideas send her an email

HuffPostFund@gmail.com.
