The Huffington Post has acquired the comedy site 236.com and now the news site will integrate the later into a new comedy section called Huffington Post Comedy. The financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.

According to the co-founder of the Huffington Post, Arianna Huffington:

After a successful first year as a standalone comedy site we are excited to bring 236 into The Huffington Post as we launch our comedy vertical.

We look forward to creating a section that serves not only as a one-stop-shop for humor with a satirical take on the news but a spirited community for all comedy lovers.
