    News outlets have already jumped on the VR bandwagon, and today another publication joins the fray. Today, AOL announced its acquisition of the LA-based virtual reality and 360-degree video production studio RYOT. By bringing the company under its wing, AOL will leverage the resources to boost The Huffington Post's quest to "re-imagine journalism as we move into the next generation of dynamic storytelling." In fact, Arianna Huffington & Co. have already teamed up with RYOT, producing "The Crossing:" an immersive series about the refugee crisis in Greece.
