HW 20: Very Kostly

After reading both of the interviews from the readings, I found that one of the articles would have a definite impact on my vote in the upcoming election. The Daily Kos had the biggest influence on my decision. The website contained more factual information that I would trust more than the joking spirit of the Wonkette. Following the passages from Kline and Burstien, I concluded that Markos’ interview seemed more mature as he has had real life experiences in both war and politics, whereas Ana Marie Cox seemed more informal in her interview. It comes as no surprise that she is an honest and well-known blogger, as she has a great sense of humor, which is ideal for the type of writing that she does. Despite the one-sided approach of the Daily Kos, I would trust relying on that for accurate information in accordance with the political race. I found both websites to be entertaining but in different ways.
