Arianna Huffington offering bus rides to Washington rally led by Jon Stewart, Stephen Colbert

Arianna Huffington pledges free bus rides to rally

NEW YORK — Website publisher Arianna Huffington has a ticket to ride, one for everybody who wants to get to Washington from New York for the rally scheduled by Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert next month.

Appearing on Comedy Central’s “The Daily Show” on Tuesday, Huffington told Stewart that anyone who arrives at her office in lower Manhattan on Oct. 30 can hitch a free ride on one of her buses.

She said her “promise” is to have as many buses as people to fill them.

An information sign-up list is on the website for The Huffington Post.

Stewart’s “Rally to Restore Sanity” and a competing “March to Keep Fear Alive” led by his fellow TV host, Colbert, will take place on the National Mall.
