Jon Friedman asks: How long before Arianna axes Armstrong?

As Market Watch's Jon Friedman notes, the Wall Street wisdom holds that AOL's Tim Armstrong got a bad deal when he bought Arianna Huffington's Huffington Post.  "Fleeced" was the word that Jon used.    And now, Jon asks, how long will it before Arianna gets tired of reporting to Tim?   How long before she thinks to herself, "I'm the better businessperson.  I'm the brand here.  So why do I have to listen to Tim, who took over AOL, not to turn it around, but to continue its decline?"

Good questions!
