Blog Post 4

1. Julie Zeilinger writes a popular blog called the F-bomb. She is is originally from Pepper Pike, Ohio and is currently a member of the Barnard College Class of 2015. Julie and the FBomb have been featured in media outlets such as The Daily Beast, More Magazine, Women’s Day and Salon amongst others. Zeilinger’s site is more than just typical teenage angst, hosting an array of voices who aren’t afraid to speak up about what they think is wrong. I am interested in her blog because I want to become active in the feminist moment and stay updated on topics and events. 

2. Keith Bradsher is the Hong Kong bureau chief of The New York Times, covering Asian business, economic, political and science news.He has been a reporter for the newspaper since 1989; previous postings include as Detroit bureau chief; Washington correspondent for domestic economics; Washington correspondent for trade and international economics; New York business reporter for telecommunications; and New York business reporter for airlines and freight transportation.He won the Asia Society’s Osborn Elliott Award and the Overseas Press Club’s Malcolm Forbes Award in 2010, for coverage of clean energy in China. He won the George Polk Award for national reporting for his coverage of sport utility vehicles in 1997 and was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize the same year. I am interested in his blogging because I want to stay informed in world events, and China is very powerful and could become the number 1 world power at any moment.
