In 2012, ''The Huffington Post'' became the first commercially run United States digital media enterprise to win a Pulitzer Prize. In July 2012, ''The Huffington Post'' was ranked #1 on the 15 Most Popular Political Sites list by ''eBizMBA Rank'', which bases its list on each site's Alexa Global Traffic Rank and U.S. Traffic Rank from both Compete and Quantcast. ==History== ''The Huffington Post'' was founded by Arianna Huffington in May 2005 and launched on May 9. It has an active community, with over one million comments made on the site each month. Prior to ''The Huffington Post'', Huffington hosted a website called Ariannaonline.com. Her first foray into the Internet was a website called Resignation.com which called for the resignation of President Bill Clinton and was a rallying place for conservatives opposing Clinton. In August 2013 the website banned anonymous comments.〔Landers, Elizabeth. "(Huffington Post to ban anonymous comments )." ''CNN''. August 22, 2013.
