LOS ANGELES ? Blogger Luke Ford of LukeIsBack.com and LukeFord.net has been profiled in a cover story in the Aug. 3 issue of the Jewish Journal of Greater Los Angeles.
The story looks at Ford's history on the Internet, starting with his first website, LukeFord.com, which started in 1997 and made an impact when it reported the HIV outbreak among adult performers in 1998.
Ford made a similar impact on mainstream politics in January on his LukeFord.net site when he observed that Los Angeles mayor Antonio Villaraigosa had stopped wearing his wedding ring ? a story leaked to him by an L.A. Daily News reporter who couldn't get it printed in his own paper.
In 2001 Ford sold his adult news site LukeFord.com and turned to mainstream reporting on LukeFord.net. He came back to adult reporting in 2004 with LukeIsBack.com.
