that is why arianna huffington played into all my stuff. she is perfect. she is whining.ble. you're making so much money. melissa: that is pretty good impression. who knew, sort of like double accent there with him trying to do the arianna huffington. >> i happen to know her. i known her for 20 years. i knew her when she was conservative by the way. she was to the right of newt gingrich. she really was. melissa: what happened. >> that is a good question. her head spun one way and turn ad-lib ral. how many times will it spin. maybe she needs a cold shower to figure out which direction she had should be looking in. >> the schwarzenegger schnitzel he called himself. the schwarzenegger schnitzel. melissa: take a look at this. this is rare $5 bill given to vice president charles fairbanks in 1905. it is expected to sell at talk shum for $300,000. what do you think about that? it is a $5 bill worth 300,000. look how cool. i didn't even know that the $5 bill looked like that at one point. >> who knew fairbanks was a vice president. have you ever heard of fairbanks before? never.

arianna huffington tried it and had to give away of the huffington post magazine for free. >> i don'tging for content. i will happily sell you my two books in one kindle single. there is so much content from the daily beast itself i don't think there is a market for this on-line. tina said something that made sense to me about the business model here. she said they are transferring subscriptions to the tablet. what they have in the owner of this is a big liability in future subscription obligations so i finally get it, they are going to transfer them to the tablet. i'm not saying what about the future of "newsweek" in any form. >> right. magazines in their heyday and you edited one and i have worked for one, they present a vision and tone, a collection of writers and the web seems to be about searching for topics or stories that people are interested in, making people the editors of their own magazines. can a magazine work on-line, or is it an attempt to transfer and old-fashioned concept to a digital frontier where it may not fit? >> i was talking to a crowd about cure ration and tha
