__TOC__

== Summary ==
Blogger is a [[WP:BLOGS|blog]] hosting service that owns the blogspot.com domain. As a [[WP:SPS|self-published source]], it is considered generally unreliable and should be avoided unless the author is a [[WP:EXPERTSOURCE|subject-matter expert]] or the blog is used for [[WP:ABOUTSELF|uncontroversial self-descriptions]]. Blogger blogs published by a media organization should be evaluated by the reliability of the organization. Newspaper blogs hosted using Blogger should be handled with [[WP:NEWSBLOG]]. Blogger should never be used for third-party claims related to [[WP:BLPSPS|living persons]]; this includes interviews, as even those cannot be authenticated.
