Jeremy Hooper’s Good As You Blog

• The producer is Jeremy Hooper.

• The content is specifically peaceful in the subject of  L.G.B.T (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender). It uses current news and media to bring to light the lack of rights and discrimination that may be happening to people in general. But the way he does it is in a very non aggressive manner. He in a way presents different information occurring presently for the reader to then make their own conclusions.

• This is a personal blog to the producer, so it seems. According to the information given he is a homosexual who just recently got married in 2005. But besides this being personal in the way of his sexual preference, his views are also seen in the content. His views of wanting freedom for all, is reflected on every post he puts up.

• He posts almost everyday, and the information he posts regarding gay rights and discrimination is almost everyday. Even if it is not specific to the subject, it is in the ball park and directs one’s thinking toward the direction of gay rights and discrimination.

• The videos and articles provided comes with a brief explanation of what is in it. But the distinct thing about these explanations are the resonating sounds of “READ ME!”. He does a great job of luring the reader into wanting more.

• The page is linked to face book, aim, twitter and email.

Jen Burke’s Jenburke.com Blog

• It seems as though it is produced by Jen Burke, and that could be a group or an individual but there is no clear indication.

• The site is very diverse but still maintains a focus on gay rights and discrimination. There are subjects on there regarding law and attorneys but it is geared toward LGBT. There are a lot of original pieces that are written, that are linked to present issues on the topic.

• There is not a description like other blogs about the producer and or producers, but judging from the content one can extract that the creators of the blog are interested in the legal aspects of LGBT and the discrimination that is usually attached to that idea

• There aren’t any dates on the postings but judging from the site, it was made specifically during the voting of 2008 elections. The last update was made in 2009. But the things that are posted are very much concentrated toward the topic at hand.

• The threads of information that are up seem very aggressive and in your face as a reader, and to me it was a way to get people energized about the topic to further read.

• There were no social networking links attached.

Boston Globe’s The Big Picture

• The producer is Paula Nelson. She contributes to a blog section on the Boston Globe website.

• The content is focused on events happening all over the word, from the topic of poverty, strikes, to the pope going to Cuba, to my topic homosexual movements. I think the commonality in all the stories on her blog, is that the things reported are events that effect every one in some way and there is a topic for everyone.

• The producers interest seems to be civil movements, and by that I mean problems or issues occurring civilly amongst people in a certain place. It seems to be a goal to bring that news to people in America, because most of the stories are internationally based.

• The content is roughly every month, and homosexuality only appeared once in the past year worth of posts. But if you click on the story there are a lot of photos, which I guess compensates for the lacking of gay rights information.

• There are comments with each story and pictures specifically, but the description does indeed describe what  the topics are about, just not in an enticing way.

• There is a link to social networks; face book and twitter.

Human Rights Campaign’s HRC blog/website

• The producers are group of people

• The content is focused on civil rights for LGBT, and the movement of it. There are a lot of up to date information regarding that, such as Romney’s speech on it for voting purposes and a priest who is in support of HRC.

• Their interest is bringing forth equality for the LGBT community, and doing so by bringing awareness to the issues they suffer and the need for their equality.

• Their blog is updated and posted on daily with peoples opinions, oppositions and just pure information. This blog is within the general website which seems to be updated as much as the blog or as needed.

• The comments accompanying each story or information is very succinct which I feel is perfect. It is straight to the point, and this lets one decide very quickly if they want to read further or not.

• There is a link to face book, twitter, and Google.
