OPINION | JOHN BRUMMETT: Bubba holds forth
Some smart-aleck put in a letter to the editor the other day that I'd written something he liked and somehow managed to do so without consulting Bubba McCoy.
Brummett’s career in news began when he was in high school as a part-time reporter for the Arkansas Democrat. He moved to the Arkansas Gazette in 1977. He wrote a political column for the Gazette from 1986 to 1990. He was an editor for Arkansas Times from 1990 to 1992. In 1994, his book, High Wire: From the Back Roads to the Beltway, the Education of Bill Clinton, was published by Hyperion of New York City. He became a columnist with the Democrat-Gazette in 1994. In 2000, he signed a deal with Donrey Media Group, now known as Stephens Media, and wrote for them for 11 years. He rejoined Arkansas Democrat-Gazette as a columnist on Oct. 24, 2011.

People say they're tired of hearing about the lectern. Fine. The issue is whether they're tired of their governor, and, if not, why not.
We may be seeing the political right and left coming together right here in Arkansas, among the unlikeliest of places.
May I summarize the lectern audit in gritty plain language? Why, thank you. I shall.
I sat there thinking the event was working and that I only cared right now in politics about good will and tolerance among people who differ on issues.
There is a way to do it. Here, let me show Asa Hutchinson how.
