Ed Morrissey Biography

In October 2003, Ed Morrissey first started the conservative political blog called Captain's Quarters without predicting the impact that his blog would have on political and media debate. As the New Media appeared as an offset to established media sources, Captain Ed, as known to his readers, used his creative essays about the presidential election, the failings of the mainstream media, national politics and foreign policy to the leading of the New Media movement. As a top blogger, his efforts have massive reach and impact. His findings about secret testimony in a Canadian political scandal threatened to overturn the Liberal Party government. Captain's Quarters has pushed the effort to bring some form of responsibility to mainstream media sources such as CNN where Eason Jordan, its former head of programming, resigned under pressure from the New Media for his unconfirmed statements about murder plots by the US military targeting journalists in war zones. Ed Morrissey also writes broadly on First Amendment issues for the blogosphere and he is one of the pioneer signatories for the Online Coalition, an independent group of bloggers who ask for equal treatment for New Media citizen journalists as their corporate colleagues in the mainstream news outlets. Edward has assisted in developing a model for success and growth of the impacts of the blogosphere into other communication channels. The Daily Standard, the New York Post and the New York Sun have featured his essays. Ed Morrissey is also a co-host on a weekly talk radio show in Minneapolis with a group of Twin Cities bloggers, and has made numerous appearances on radio and television and radio in Canada and the United States for his opinions on breaking news stories. His interacting style, wealth of experience, and cultivation of loyal readership with over 25,000 visitors daily gives him distinct outlooks into the future, past and present of the New Media.
