Maryscott O'Connor (born April 29, 1968) is an American blogger best known as the founder and editor-in-chief of My Left Wing, a blog that focused on politics.
Career
She first came to prominence as a blogger at Daily Kos, a left-wing blog that My Left Wing "spun off" from.[1] While she was politically aware, she was prompted to blog shortly after a series of events in the 2000s, noting in a Washington Post profile of her blog that, even in her anger, she felt "more connected" than ever.[2] While she quickly became one of the more popular writers at Daily Kos,[2] she was eventually banned from the site over a copyright issue,[3] but My Left Wing continued to gain popularity, averaging 14,000 page views a day as of summer 2006.[2]
