Is he insulting his readers, or giving them a sly pat on the back?
- i think it just depends on how you would want to take this, you might be offended if you read it that way, or you could honestly care less. i personaly care less. im not the kind of person who would really pay that much attentoion to something like this if i saw it, but i could see how some readers might take it very offensive.
(2) What things about Morford's style of writing appeal to you, and what things turn you off?
-I dont really like his style of writing, i almost feel like in some parts of the article, he is yelling. that is probably the point he is trying to get across, but if i want to get yelled at im sure i could find a real person to yell at me and not have to read about it and imagine someone yelling at me from a newspaper article.
(3) How well suited would you guess his style is for readers in San Francisco? For online readers irrespective of location?
- i guess it would be fine? i dont know i have never been there, or dont know anyone from there, so i guess it would be alright? i couldnt really say.
(4) How would Morford's column fly in a conservative, Midwestern town like Springfield? With older readers? With people in your demographic? Could it be toned down without losing its appeal?
- i dont think his article would go over very well in a place like springfield. Not a lof of younger people read the newspaper, they get most of thier information online, and the older people get read the newspaper, so they would be the ones reading this article and i think they would take it very offensive. I think it would lose something if some of the violence was taken out.
