HuffPost Celebrates 20 Years Of Groundbreaking Digital-First Journalism
NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Today, HuffPost, the award-winning online news organization steeped in fair and fearless reporting, proudly celebrates its 20th anniversary as a groundbreaking digital-first site. Founded in 2005 as The Huffington Post, the platform has grown from a pioneering blog-based news site into a must-read global voice for news, politics, culture, and personal stories.
Launched in New York City by Arianna Huffington, Jonah Peretti, Kenneth Lerer, and a team of forward-thinking journalists and technologists, HuffPost helped usher in a new era of digital-first journalism. From its earliest days, the site disrupted the traditional media landscape by centering internet-native content, elevating underrepresented voices, and creating a space for community engagement across a wide range of topics.
Over the past two decades, HuffPost has received widespread recognition for its editorial excellence and impact, including a Pulitzer Prize for national reporting, The National Magazine Award, numerous Webby Awards, and honors from GLAAD and many other journalism and advocacy organizations. With millions of loyal readers, HuffPost continues to play a vital role in helping people make sense of the world and live better lives.
'For 20 years, HuffPost has relentlessly covered the most important, most compelling stories and offered our audience a loud, direct and honest perspective they can't find anywhere else,' said Whitney Snyder, Editor-in-Chief of HuffPost. 'At a time when America's free press and cherished institutions are under attack, we are proud to celebrate our anniversary and are committed to the next 20 years of indispensable, independent reporting.'
Updated HuffPost Logo
To commemorate this milestone, HuffPost is unveiling a refreshed logo and visual identity to reflect the site's fair and fearless reporting since 2005. The updated logo includes white HuffPost text on a darker green background with pink accent colors, with an 'H' logo thumbnail. The branding is a nod to HuffPost's original roots, with darker green, and what the organization stands for: being bold, fearless, and grounded in truth.
HuffPost Helps Day
As part of HuffPost's 20th anniversary, HuffPost is holding the first HuffPost Helps Day on May 9th. A day of community service in New York, California, Washington, DC, and in towns and cities across the country, HuffPost Helps Day will mobilize HuffPost staffers to volunteer in their communities and participate in service activities at local food banks, shelters, animal rescues and meal delivery nonprofits on May 9th and throughout the month.

HuffPost writers chronicled the most iconic and notable moments in HuffPost's 20 year history – from the site's outspoken support for gay marriage in 2006 to BuzzFeed's acquisition of HuffPost in 2021.
