HW 17B: DailyKos or Wonkette?

DailyKos would be more likely to influence the way I would vote in an upcoming election because the writers take it more seriously then the writers at Wonkette do. Markos Zuniga talks about how writing for DailyKos is more like a job because so many people read it and because it is such an important part of his life. He gets roughly 500,000 visitors daily to his site because he is so passionate about the elections that he writes about it is as if he is an expert. Ana Cox however discusses how while she is writing for Wonkette she can be lazy and not have to work very hard. Basically in that statement she is saying that it is not that important to her and that she does not do much where as DailyKos is a very serious blog site. Cox also says that she likes how the people that read her blogs feel like they have a connection or relationship with her but her writing for Wonkette is not the real her "Wonkette is me after too many margaritas". I just think that saying that also reduces any important value that people had of her blogs and kind of reduces her amount of people reading it because she is basically saying it's almost like made up stuff.
