HW 11: Applying Graff, Chapter 6 to “Making Global Voices Heard”

The blog I chose to look up and view was the Kenyan Pundit Blog. The theme of the blog is actually quite interesting and fun to look at, though the writing is kind of bland and boring. From what I read, the blog postings are mostly about the blogger’s life. Nothing really about politics, mostly about things that have been going on in the blogger’s life. Ory likes to talk about how her daughter’s feet are really cute. She also likes to talk about watching Big Brother Africa. But when it comes to talking about Kenyan politics, Ory isn’t really succeeding. MacKinnon’s statements don’t really match up to what I’ve read, since MacKinnon said that Ory was talking a lot about politics in Kenya when she’s not. Of course, many will probably disagree with this assertion that she doesn’t talk much about Kenyan politics. But as of right now, she hasn’t been.
