Huffington Post launches divorce-themed section

[November 09, 2010]  NEW YORK (AP) -- For a contemporary news destination like the Huffington Post, divorce is as much a part of daily life as sports and entertainment.

The website on Monday launched a section devoted solely to matters related to divorce.

The section is one of numerous on the news and opinion website. It's subtitled: "Marriage comes and goes but divorce is forever."

That quotation is from author and filmmaker Nora Ephron, a HuffPost editor-at-large who was involved in the creation of HuffPost Divorce. She and journalist Carl Bernstein divorced in 1979.

HuffPost co-founder and editor-in-chief Arianna Huffington says because divorce affects "so many lives and so many myriad aspects of these lives" she wants to "put a spotlight on them."
