Evan Coyne Maloney
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Evan Coyne Maloney (born October 27, 1972), is the editor of the website Brain Terminal, a pioneer of video blogging. He is a graduate of Bucknell University.
In 1995, Evan was the lead developer of UNET's KeepTalking web chat server.
In February of 2003, Evan posted the video Protesting the Protesters to his website. The video featured street interviews at an anti-war protest in New York City. Although his site was fairly obscure at the time, several media outlets took notice, and within a day of his posting the video, it was featured on Special Report with Brit Hume. A day later, audio clips from the interviews were featured on Rush Limbaugh's radio show.
Since then, Maloney's website has become one of the leading sources for political commentary. By the end of 2003, his site received over 5 million hits. In 2004, Brain Terminal logged over 6 million hits.
In late 2003, Maloney co-founded On The Fence Films, a film production company with entrepreneur Stuart Browning and entertainment attorney Blaine Greenberg. Their first release, Brainwashing 101 is a short documentary analyzing the political environments on three college campuses: Bucknell University, the University of Tennessee and California Polytechnic. The film was named one of the "10 Best Documentary Films of 2004" by the Liberty Film Festival, and John Fund of The Wall Street Journal reported that it was "the clear favorite of festival attendees" at the American Film Renaissance.
In the fall of 2005, On The Fence Films released Maloney's follow-up film Brainwashing 201: The Second Semester, another short film focusing on higher education. Brainwashing 201 has only been screened once, at the Liberty Film Festival, where it won the award for "Best Short Film of 2005."
Sometime in 2006, On The Fence Films will release Indoctrinate U, the feature-length follow-up to Brainwashing 101 and Brainwashing 201: The Second Semester.
