Our local newspaper the Austin American Statesman has a 'blogging' section that I recently became aware of by the lurid right wing headlines featured on the frontpages of their daily online edition. Authors have the ability to 'approve' comments which means that right wing bloggers don't publish any comments that make their 'arguments' (and I use the term loosely) look bad.
One blogger who caught my attention in particular was a blogger who goes by the name 'Nogirlemen' and uses a picture of Arnold Schwarzenegger as his Avatar. Besides the homophobic/misogynistic undertones to his name (essentially nofaggots or nosissies) Nogirlemen spends a lot of time spreading disinformation under lurid headlines. 'Obama is a coward,' 'Obama's weakness with Whites,' etc. He also refuses to accept comments refuting his point of view, so I decided to take action.
