Do you know of any newspapers or blogs online using Spanglish in their articles? I would greatly appreciate your help.

Yours faithfully

I guess this is not the right site to meet your needs. I'm not intending to speak for everyone else as members of this forum, however, I don't think they will have information off the cuff concerning articles written in Spanglish, a deviation of the regular and usual course of the Spanish language, and spoken by those who regard this practice as normal(because it is ordinary and/or trivial for them to set the native Spanish-speaking people figuring out what "marketta" means when in fact what they meant to say(and should've said) is "mercado".
I also guess that the articles you're looking for are on the Internet beyond any doubt, as the web has become a suitable niche for those who stand behind the practice of such linguistical inconsistency.

Anyway, I would appreciate if you tell me what your findings have been so far on this regard, since I have no idea where on the web I can find blogs freely written in this «new Spanish language adjustment».

Good luck.
