Web Entrepreneur and writer launches new pop culture entertainment news site. After almost two months in beta testing and development, new pop culture and entertainment news site, Sex, Comics and Rock'n'Roll is now live at www.sexcomicsandrocknroll.com. "The idea came from wanting to create a news site that combines some of my favorite things, and like many other people out there my three favorite things are in fact sex, comics, and rock music. I didn't want it to be a regular site though, I wanted it to be fun and irreverent, and a place where readers can...get accurate pop culture news..." said site owner and professional writer Mike Gagnon. Gagnon had been working on the concept for over a year, but had it on the back burner while working as a book and comic book publisher. After Gagnon left the publishing industry in late 2006 to pursue his calling as a freelance writer he finally was able to make the time to bring his concept to life. The thing about Sex, Comics and Rock'n'Roll that makes it unique is that there will be no paid advertising of any kind, no chat rooms or forums, and that news from undiscovered talent will be given equal consideration as large national news stories. "I just felt that people feel they're being sold to enough as it is everywhere else, forums often degenerate into immature public arguments, which I have no interest in providing a venue for, and that there a lot of talented people out there looking for recognition and should be given the opportunity to earn that exposure. Again it all comes back to wanting to make the site a fun reading experience without the excess clutter that is becoming all too common." Gagnon added. Readers are encouraged however to post comments on the news articles they read directly on the website. The site went live on Thursday, January 11th to begin beta testing and work out any kinks before the official launch on Tuesday, January 23rd 2006. Over the last two months of development many new features have been added as well, including a web store powered by Amazon that offers high quality adult items, graphic novels, and rock music albums. There are also functions where website viewers can submit news, write letters to the editor to be posted on the site and more. Pop culture fans can find the site at http://www.sexcomicsandrocknroll.com Interested media and writers can contact site creator Mike Gagnon at mgagnon@bmts.com or via www.sexcomicsandrocknroll.com.
