BipolarNation.com

The blog I have chosen to follow is Bipolar Nation. Here is a link to the site: BipolarNation.com

Bipolar Nation is a political blog created and owned by Dan Kenitz. Kenitz is a 2006 college graduate of Cardinal Stritch University in Milwaukee. He, along with Aaron Robertson, a college buddy and Vice President of Marketing for the blog, co-authors Bipolar Nation. The site has been up and running since 2006. It boasts over 1,200 subscribers and over 7,000 blog posts. The blog has active forums and message boards. The goal of the site is to bring "people of every race, religion, creed, color, belief, gender, sexual orientation, sports team loyalty, astrological sign. personality, nation, continent, planet, and political affiliation to discuss current events." Kenitz believes "our political beliefs should not force us to segregate each other."

Peace, Love

My First Post

Hey!

What's up, guys? I'm Evan Roseberry. I'm creating this blog as a part of my Introduction to Media and Communication Studies class. For those who are not in my class, I attend UMBC. I am 20 years old and a Junior in college. I recently switched majors. I was an American Studies major with a focus in communications; however, now I am a Media and Communication Studies major. In the future I hope to become a journalist.

After graduating, I hope to join the Peace Corps for a few years and then attend grad school. After grad school, I want to move to New York to try to make it as a journalist. Eventually I'd like to write a novel.


I'm on the UMBC Swimming and Diving Team. Our record this season is 6-1. We will be competing in our conference championships at the University of Maine in 2 weeks. Here is a link to the UMBC Athletics webpage: www.umbcretrievers.com

Peace, Love
