Ed Morrissey Biography

When Ed Morrissey first launched the conservative political blog "Captain's Quarters" in October 2003, he could hardly have predicted the impact that his venture would have on the media and political debate. As the New Media emerged as a counterbalance to established media sources, Morrissey, known to his readers as "Captain Ed," utilized his prolific essays about national politics, foreign policy, presidential elections, and the shortcomings of the mainstream media to position himself at the forefront of the New Media movement. Attracting over 25,000 daily visitors, "Captain's Quarters" exemplifies his significant influence and reach within the landscape.

Morrissey's investigative work, particularly his revelations about secret testimony in a Canadian political scandal, once posed a serious threat to the stability of the Canadian Liberal Party government. This highlighted the powerful role of digital media in political discourse. Further establishing his role as a media watchdog, he led initiatives to bring accountability to mainstream media sources, notably in the case of CNN's former head of programming, Eason Jordan, who resigned following pressure from New Media over unsubstantiated allegations about assassination plots by the US military to target journalists in war zones.

Beyond blogging, Morrissey has contributed to the New York Sun, the New York Post, and the Daily Standard. He co-hosts a weekly talk-radio show in Minneapolis with a group of Twin Cities bloggers, and is frequently featured on television and radio in both the United States and Canada for his commentary on breaking news stories. An original signatory of the Online Coalition, Morrissey advocates for the equal treatment of New Media citizen journalists and their mainstream counterparts. His breadth of experience, engaging commentary style, and the loyalty of his readership provide him with unique insights into the evolving dynamics of New Media.
