Class Links Post

Cheers!:
This blog is worth a visit by virtue of its relation to my topic. It speaks from the invested viewpoint of a college student and outlines many of the arguments the common college student is likely to make in favour of lowering the drinking age. Visit it for a different take on the same issue.

Nonlinearperspectives:
This blog is an interrogation of the drug legalization issue that argues the somewhat radical stance for legalizing marijuana. Despite its seemingly radical viewpoint, the blogger successfully articulates a cogent argument for the legalization of marijuana, without coming off sounding petulant and unreasonably anti-establishment for the sake of being so.

The media told me to do it
:
This blog explores the influencing capability of the media, an issue highly pertinent to anyone who is a part of the modern world. Its tone is entirely different from the previous two blogs highlighted. While the first (Cheers!) is conversational, and the second (Nonlinearperspectives) is academic, this blogger is enthusiastically entertaining, almost like what one would expect from someone making a sales pitch. Reading this blog will definitely give you a different experience of the blog medium.
