Synopsis

Released exactly a year before the U.S. presidential election, this book introduces the world's top 20 political bloggers who will be following the campaigns every step of the way. From political Left to poltical Right these bloggers manipulate observation into a powerful political tool, their influence on public perception now being a force for politicians themselves to reckon with. This book not only offers readers an account of how such power was obtained but how it can be emulated. Each chapter, starting with a brief profile of blog and blogger and followed by indepth interviews, builds a body of advice on how to "make it" in the political blogosphere from those who already have. Contains never-before shared blogging anecdotes from Arianna Huffington herself as well as practical blogging advice for those of any political orientation.
