About Rhetorica
This blog has a long history by blogging standards. It began as the Timeline blog in 1998, which was a part of a site I created in grad school called Presidential Campaign Rhetoric 2000. In 2002, I re-branded everything and created the Rhetorica: Press Politics Journal. I had a modest amount of success in the early days of blogging as quantified by links, page views, and reader engagement. All of that history is available on Archive.org. In later years, I tried a few different things, including recently abandoning the blog (following a major snafu in which I lost much of my content) and making Rhetorica a portfolio site for my documentary filmmaking. But I’ve re-banded again, so Rhetorica will once again be a rhetoric blog. My documentary work can be found at Eyewitness.
