HW 3

When it comes to the topic of political blogs David Kline shows his knowledge in the reading "Blog toward a more particuipatory Democracy". Many people assume that the news on the television or on the radio gives you the best and most reliable information. After reading this essay i learned political blogs might be a better source of information. David Kline stated that "political blogs and online organizing played in the 2004 election will go down in history as being just as transformative as the role televison played during the 1960 Kennedy debates". I think this is really interesting because it tells you were blogging is going in the future and how powerful it will really be. American people hardly belive what they hear today what they hear on the news and thats why political blogs are becoming more popular. Also another thing about the news is that Americans today tend to belive that religion is really important in their everyday life, but yet they hardly talk about religion in the news. I believe that political blogs played a huge role in the 2004 election. I also belive that this new world of political blogs will continue to grow and spread. Before reading this essay i never knew the effects blogs had on politics, i am interested to see the effect blogging will have on the next election.
