The redirect is a known problem and there is already a few tickets filed:

https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-infrastructure/ticket/1778
https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-infrastructure/ticket/1718

Although the tickets don't mention it, there has been some work
towards getting this resolved. We do believe its either a problem with
wp-login.php or http -> https rewrite issue (more likely the rewrite).

The wiki page on the blog.fp.o stuff is on the Websites page:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Websites#blogs.fedoraproject.org

The docs and the redirect issues are the main reasons blogs hasn't
been announced yet.

If you'd like to talk more about this and have some ideas, you can
find us in #fedora-websites on Freenode.

Thanks,
