I'm not sure what's wrong with my code?

I watched the video several times and tried looking online:(

com/example/BlogPost.java 
package com.example;

public class BlogPost {

}
Display.java 
import com.example.BlogPost;

public class Display {
  public static void main(String[] args) {
    BlogPost blogpost = new BlogPost();
    System.out.printf("This is a blog post: %s %n", BlogPost);
  }
}

In your code you have:

BlogPost blogpost = new BlogPost();
    System.out.printf("This is a blog post: %s %n", BlogPost);

But it should be:

BlogPost blogpost = new BlogPost();
    System.out.printf("This is a blog post: %s %n", blogpost);

You should use the BlogPost object that you instantiated in your printf() statement not the class itself.
