‘Pink News’ Blog Assessment

Pink News is a blog I have frequently checked up on because it is targeted towards LGBTQ+ readers. Their posts and topics are always interesting and cover up to date topics. I admire the way they organize their posts usually utilizing short paragraph structures and images to make the text easier to digest. I’m not super efficient on reading heavy text articles or congested information online but Pink News has their information organized in a skillful way that caters to what readers want.

This is the first thing seen on Pink News’s ‘about’ page. The pride and rainbow graphics, as well as their mission statement, make it clear this is an LGBTQ+ blog. They brand themselves specifically for the niche they serve and there is no confusion surrounding it.

The specific article I read spoke of Trump’s private phone call with evangelical leaders and Trump voicing the importance of praying for him in the next election over the issues Coronavirus is currently causing. I think this is very important information to share because instead of focusing on the urgent issue that is Covid-19 Trump is focusing on recruiting anti LGBTQ+ groups for his re-election. However, it is essential for citizens to go out and vote in the upcoming election if we want to change the current political climate and state the US is in right now.
