The move from print media to online publishing destroyed the barriers to entry that the large media companies used to enjoy. Huffington Post used this to rise up while print media faltered. The bandwidth, server, and tech costs have likewise fallen in the years since they were founded, making start ups in this space even less expensive. The barriers to entry that outfits like HuffPost used to enjoy are gone. Now it's a question of who can rake the most muck because the ability to draw attention is now the top barrier. In the near future this might be moot and the main barrier will be the ability to appease CloudFlare, AWS, and domain registrars.
