Arianna Huffington said last night at a conference that the Huffington Post is planning to expand into local news, according to ReadWriteWeb. Initially, the site will launch an edited news aggregation site (similar to the main Huffington Post site) localized for the metro area around Chicago, which will be managed by a single editor. "We are aspiring to be a newspaper in that we want to covering all news [sic], not just the political blogging the way we began," Huffington said.
