The blogs I am following, as I mentioned in a previous post, are the Ville Voice and InstaPundit.
The Ville Voice has two authors, Rick Redding and Jacob (Jake) Payne. Rick Redding, a Louisville native residing in Jeffersontown, is the original creator of the blog. He has worked in various media venues including blogging, reporting, writing, and photographing news, sports, and politics. Jake is an eastern Kentucky native who loves anything having to do with politics or technology. He serves as a political liaison, spokesperson, and financial adversary.
The audience of The Ville Voice is comprised mostly of Louisvillians who are interested in updates about the city in which they live. The main purpose of this blog is to update all interested parties in Louisville's upcoming events, local news updates, and the latest Louisville gossip. The blog also contains the occasional national news updates.
The author of InstaPundit is Glenn Reynolds. He is currently employed at the University of Tennessee as a law professor. He has written a variety of articles and books pertaining to a multitude of subjects such as environmentalism and ethics. He is currently a contributing editor at Popular Mechanics. He has strong interests in music and the crossroads of technology and individual liberty.
The audience of this particular blog is conservatives and those with an interest in politics. The blogs provides updates on political issues from a conservative standpoint. It shares videos, interviews, and articles about the conservative opinion on current political topics such as health care reform.
Though I am not strongly interested in politics I feel InstaPundit will be able to hold my attention as i follow for the next few months. As for The Ville Voice, I love this city and am of course interested in its news and events.
