1. huffingtonpost.com
2. I'd say that this site is mostly opinion. ex.) "Which is why it's important to discuss with kids, even those too young to yet understand all the specific policy points or platforms, why politics matters." (Drexler) While this statement is most likely true, i would not call it a fact, it is more of her personal belief. 
3. A good amount of this site is fact as well because it talks about political stories. ex.) "Three legalization initiatives on state ballots are drawing support from voters, newspapers, civic groups, celebrities and even some members of law enforcement." (Angell)
4. This site is mostly built off of other peoples blogs.
5. The majority of the bloggers on this site seem to be Democratic, usually talking against Romney and in support of Obama.
6. This site could influence the American public by enlightening them on current political issues and more specifically the effect these issues have on individuals. Many individuals who are well informed on politics provide their opinion on what's going on in the presidential race, and viewers can gain information on how other people are responding to the candidates' platforms to give them something to reflect on.
