Jseattle, who cranks out news on his Capitol Hill Blog at the rate of cable news channel ticker, shows us what a neighborhood blog can be. Packed with context, Justin Carder—as jseattle is known to the IRS—is straight-forward with his treatment of an area of Seattle that can get a little bit abstract and overwrought. And by virtue of the fact that he covers the most vital neighborhood in Seattle, we all benefit. From documenting the rise of milk theft at grocery stores (it’s really a thing!) to Macklemore’s video shoot at Dick’s, his reporting has a way of engaging even those of us who try to avoid the area at all costs. And it’s sheer relentlessness is something at which to marvel.
