The Huffington Post is to expand its coverage to local news in the US.
The plans will start with a site for Chicago, aggregating news from different local sources and with contributions from local bloggers. The site will be overseen by one editor.
Ariana Huffington said yesterday around a dozen US cities would feature in the expansion plans.
