What is BlueNC?
Submitted by ryanteaguebeckwith on 2008-03-26 12:25A liberal Web site in North Carolina.
The site started in the winter of 2005, and is managed by BlueNC LLC, a limited liability corporation formed on March 8, 2006, by Lance McCord Jr., John C. Livingston and James Protzman.
McCord and Livingston later left to start law careers, but Protzman remains a regular blogger, sometimes writing under the screen name Anglico.
Several other regular contributors play a role in running the site.
Greg Flynn, a Raleigh architect; Linda Cloud, the head of a nonprofit agency in Moore County; Robert Peterson, a life sciences researcher in Chapel Hill; Gordon Smith, a child and family therapist in Asheville; and Betsy Muse of Union County have the ability to promote a post by themselves or other bloggers to the site's home page.
Over the years, BlueNC has had some influence on Democratic politics in North Carolina: Helping Larry Kissell's unsuccessful Congressional campaign in 2006, targeting a proposed Navy landing field on the coast and breaking the news of Senate candidate's Jim Neal's sexual orientation in a live blog.
In March of 2008, it hosted an online debate between Democratic gubernatorial candidate's Beverly Perdue and Richard Moore.
