David T. Young

Compulsory News is a column in which I see myself as sitting down and talking to a friend every couple of days about topics such as sports, politics, religion, the media, current events and the like, in an effort to connect the dots and somehow better understand what’s happening around us. I am a former newspaper editor with 35 years of journalistic experience.
