Speak Out 10/20/14

Congrats to newspaper

Congratulations to the Southeast Missourian for all the recent awards you've won. It gives me an opportunity to say thanks for what you do. I love reading the newspaper and going to your website. It's the best newspaper in the country, and I'm not afraid to say that. But I'm glad to see others recognizing you, too.

Obamacare

When are you guys going to give up on criticizing and/or trying to repeal Obamacare? Obamacare is a success and even the most ardent members of Congress have stopped ranting and raving about it. I mean, really.

'Hairspray'

We saw "Hairspray" over the weekend, and we wanted to say congratulations to everyone involved. We saw this show at The Muny, and this was a far better production. In fact, it rivaled shows we've seen at the Fox. The only problem was sound. Many of the actors' voices were muffled, and sometimes their microphones cut in and out. However, we stilled loved it. It's hard to believe the quality of performances by these students. Very affordable and very professional.
