Career As A Blogger and Journalist
When Rosenberg commenced his blog, FailedMessiah.com, in 2004 his purpose was to post his and Schneerson's letters on the internet. He continued blogging out of concern that the blog service would remove it and close the account if he failed to continue posting. The general subject matter of his first posts was Chabad messianism. It was the advent of what he calls his “excommunication” occurring about one month after he first started FailedMessiah.com, as well as the treatment he received from former friends, which made him decide to turn FailedMessiah.com into a more in depth and frequently updated blog.
Additionally, Rosenberg authors articles for the Jewish Daily Forward, Tablet Magazine, Moment, Sh'ma Magazine, Guilt and Pleasure, Jewish World Review, Jewcy, the Minneapolis StarTribune, the Daily Beast, and at one time, when time permitted, a weekly column for Heeb called "Crimes and Misdemeanors".

Famous quotes containing the words career as, career and/or journalist:
“My ambition in life: to become successful enough to resume my career as a neurasthenic.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
“Whether lawyer, politician or executive, the American who knows what’s good for his career seeks an institutional rather than an individual identity. He becomes the man from NBC or IBM. The institutional imprint furnishes him with pension, meaning, proofs of existence. A man without a company name is a man without a country.”
—Lewis H. Lapham (b. 1935)
“I well recall my horror when I heard for the first time, of a journalist who had laid in a pair of what were then called bicycle pants and taken to golf; it was as if I had encountered a studhorse with his hair done up in frizzes, and pink bowknots peeking out of them. It seemed, in some vague way, ignominious, and even a bit indelicate.”
—H.L. (Henry Lewis)
