Trends On The Current Conservative News Blog

By Lila Bryant


Many people prefer change in political philosophies, leadership tactics, economic strategies, social behaviors but conservatives prefer stagnation of everything. Many news agencies have chosen different genres in presenting news to readers, viewers and listeners. The current conservative news blog founded in New York has chosen to specialize in presenting conservative issues to its readers.

Precisely, this blog presents conservative news to its readers touching on American politics, religion and world news. Most of this news is critical of decisions that do not go in line with conservative beliefs and philosophies. Apart from these major areas, it also looks at history, culture, American values, principles and standpoints on various key issues in the world.

This blog mostly adopts a skeptical perspective on actions of members of the American community. In one story, they aim at knowing if President Obama was truly born and raised in a Christian background. They also wonder why Obama never proves that he is a Christian. They even go further to thoughtfully question his incapability to assure Americans that he, in all aspects, qualifies to be called an American.

It looks at the handling of all the wars that America has been involved in. Writers on this blog criticize these wars as having been costly to the economy of America when it was not worth it. They also criticize Obama in one of their post for pretending not to know anything about the wars, or being involved in them when they knew everything about them.

Another article is very critical of leaders who give very promising promises during their campaigns only to find them impossible to accomplish when elected. The writer of this article is very negative. He insists that it is not possible to have a government which is totally accountable to its citizens. Sarah Palin is quoted in another article criticizing Obama for his lack of the ability to enforce accountability in his government. She argues that this predicament results from the fact that Obama is lazy.

Under the category called world news, the blog covers a range of issues that talk about occurrences in other regions of this world. It discusses politics, economic issues, social behaviors, cultural practices and many other issues facing human beings in the other five continents. In one article, this blog discusses members of the famous Islamic Brotherhood whose lives ended in a Libyan parliament after an attack by the National group of Militia men.

The social issues tackled on this blog range from sexual harassment, same sex marriage, HIV/AIDS and other social issues; both good and evil. In one article, for example, they have described a story of six brothers who sexually harassed their sister. They also have an article on homosexuality. This article takes a critical view of this issue. It rubbishes the preference for modernism at the expense of real biblical teachings. Accordingly, the book of revelation forewarns people who carry out these practices.

It can, therefore, be conclusively said that this blog is a blog for radicalized people who believe in traditionalism and rigidity to change. They are against most things happening with the pretext of modernism. They believe that most things go wrong because of the desire for change among people.
