The Troy University Speech and Drama Department just completed a four-night run of the beloved musical The Music Man. Since our third-grade son Jack played the part of Winthrop, my wife and I saw all four performances. (The play was fantastic and actually made me think there might be hope for our country’s younger generation after all. )In addition to four live shows, I’ve also recently watched the 1962 movie version several times. This means I might now qualify as an expert on The Music Man.

Several years ago I reached the conclusion I’m unhirable in my chosen profession of journalism – at least at mainstream or corporate news organizations such as newspapers and magazines. I also think it’s unlikely I’d be hired in other professions where I should be considered “qualified” – such as managerial positions in marketing, public relations, or sales. This is because, by now, I’d be easily identified as a contrarian or someone who might rock the boat in any organization that might hire me.

For a while now I’ve been worried Substack would become a major target of the Censorship Industrial Complex for the hideous and dangerous crime of allowing free speech. This story from The UK newspaper the Guardian, which was picked up by Citizen Free Press, might be significant or at least bears watching.
