My name is Kyle Shelgren. I am a senior at the University of
Northern Colorado. My field of study is journalism with a minor in sociology.
This blog is about the Greeley, Colo., City Council as well as the 2012 presidential election.
I have
never blogged before and I am excited to start. Through this assignment I hope
to gain more confidence in my writing as well as the knowledge that goes into
following a specific topic each day. I
will enjoy this because it allows me to stay up to date on current events as
well as give my own opinion on them.
Blogging is a crucial thing for
journalists today because it is a new medium. It allows journalists to write
stories each day and be able to go back and update older stories based on new
information that they receive. Blogging is very different from other
assignments because it is a day-to-day assignment where you will need to update
your blog every day. Doing this keeps the reader up to date as well as the
author.
