On The Wires
By Matt Margolis | December 27, 2005
I was recently interviewed for an Associated Press story on internet grassroots movements… It went out on the wires on Christmas Eve and may have appeared in a paper near you.
The article is quite long, here is the portion about me:
Matt Margolis got tired of hearing about the rising influence of liberal blogs so he scrolled the Internet for advice on how to start an online diary of his own. He enlisted writers. He got help with designing a home page. He found somebody who knew how to write computer coding.
Blogsforbush.com was born.
“It took a community of people to get me going,” said the 25-year-old architecture student from Boston. By the end of the 2004 election, he had a nearly 1,500 other bloggers posted on his site - an army of Bush backers who donated time and money to his campaign and wrote letters to the editor on the president’s behalf.
I probably said more exciting things over the course of the 10-15 minute phone interview with Ron Fournier (who wrote the article) but that’s all that made it in.
