Genre-Specific Blog Assisnment
http://www.mmascraps.com
MMAScraps.com is a mixed martial arts blog that compiles videos from around the web. Typical content includes fight videos as well as mma news segments and post-fight interviews. The blog is a service to readers who do not want to spend a lot of time navigating to find these videos.
The site features very little original content, usually containing one or more embedded videos hosted by other websites.
The purpose of this blog is to capture the entire world of mixed martial arts in one place. The growing popularity of the sport has spawned the formation of many more fighting leagues, which has made following the sport difficult. The purpose of this blog is to bring fans of mma together with the free videos available online.
This site, and many others like it, does not follow traditional journalistic standards. The content is not original, and the author of the blog rarely posts text. But it is still good reporting, because a large amount of information is delivered to the reader, who is left to decide for themselves.
There is a comments section with robust discussion of mma fighters and tactics, but the comment threads tend to go off topic too often.
