Something like this:

<input type="radio" name="blog-entry" value="personal-entry"/>
<input type="radio" name="blog-entry" value="publication"/>
<input type="radio" name="blog-entry" value="post"/>

<textarea name="announce"></textarea>

$(form).validate({
    rules:{
        announce: {
            required: function(element) {
                var value = $("input[name='blog-entry']").val();
                if ( val == 'publication' || val == 'post' ){
                    return true;
                }else{
                    return false;
                }
            }
        }
    }
});
