there was an editorial in the local paper today about Freedom of the Press. I was so very pleased. Recently there were actual viable Democrats on the ballot. Maybe there is hope for the future.
Thank you to The Daily Times in Blount County.

The most inappropriately named paper in the US: "The Arkansas Democrat-Gazette," a paper with an editorial position somewhere to the right of the John Birch Society. As a matter of editorial policy, Trump's poop don't stink.
