About

The name’s Ken and I live in Seattle, Washington with my wife, Kursten, our daughter Hattie and our 11 year-old black lab, R.I.C.O.

This blog was started as a way to document the final project for my master’s degree which focuses on blogs written by journalists. It’s not a standard topic of focus for a master’s in public administration but the media plays an incredibly important role in how government and other public entities work and communicate with their constituents.

That was the reason for starting this but what keeps me interested in it is sharing all the interesting stuff I come across in my life as a media nerd. I look at this blog primarily as a way to share that information with the reader but also spout off about whatever it is I think is interesting.

Now that I’m out of grad school and working and living in the real world, I have less time to blog but I’ll come back to Fernsehturm from time to time to vent or share.
