Our second part of the project that we are doing in media class deals with bloggers. When talking about blogs, there's a variety of things to keep in mind. Who is the author and what are they writing about? And how reliable is the source? Are we referring to blogs that discuss deep topics such as politics/controversies/healthcare, etc? Are these blogs by professional people who have expertise in the field? Or are we talking about blogs that are for recreational use, where people use blogs to post opinions about anything and keep journals online?
From personal experience, I have been a blogger for many years. I blog online basically just to use as a journal. I rant about frustrations, talk about something interesting or funny that happened that day, or just write about future plans. I do read up on blogs by both professionals and by everyday people on topics such as tax and everyday personal issues. I enjoy reading both for the variety and relatability.
So what types of blogs do you guys follow? Do you follow the ones written by professionals or by people like us? Does it matter to you if the source is reliable for news or not?
