HuffPo refuses to pay for an article

But when someone KNOWS they don't get paid going in and then bitches about it, I take exception.

Okay, sure, if you submitted to huffpo then bitched about not getting paid, I get it.

Huffpo contacted him asking for an article, but then saying they wouldn't pay him.

Would you go do a speech for a major local business if it contacted you and asked for you to come do a talk for them for nothing? Even if it was well known in your circles that they didn't pay? Or would you maybe bitch about the audacity of them wasting your time by even contacting you to ask for you to volunteer to boost their already high revenue?

But you took the time out of your day to read about me.

I spent like 3 minutes laughing at your website and you'll spend the rest of the day with an angry knot in your belly that you didn't really have anything to say back. I'm okay with that exchange. Sometimes you gotta volunteer your time to prove somebody wrong.
