Americablog was a USA website covering Politics and Government.
Launched on April 24, 2004 by John Aravosis, Americablog featured left-wing commentary about American politics. It appears to have been shut down in Feburary 2022.
The website was run by Aravosis and other contributors with liberal political views who generally support the Democratic Party.
Americablog first gained notoriety in 2005 when it helped expose Jeff Gannon (real name James Guckert), a member of the White House press corps with little journalistic experience who had a reputation for asking 'softball' questions of then-Press Secretary Scott McClellan. Aravosis, a gay blogger, had a running feud with Guckert, who had worked as a gay male escort.
This website was owned by AMERICAblog Media, LLC.
