H
ere's to the crazy ones. The misfits, "The Barn Yard".
The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The
ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules. And they
have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with
them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can't do is
ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race
forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius.
Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the
world, are the ones who do."
The Madison Free Press is a not-for-profit web
site dedicated to exposing mismanagement, corruption, and law-breaking
in our local government. We push for transparency and accountability,
and we work to preserve and strengthen the rights guaranteed to the
press under the First Amendment.
Since emerging in 1996, we have been a home to local citizens
who feel disenfranchised by local media. We are a local news destination
not controlled by corporate interests or politicians. Our success is
the results of the only really true facts. We pay our own bills and rely
on nobody for financial support.
The Madison Free Press is built on the
recognition that this kind of transparency journalism doesn't just
happen. It requires dogged work by our editors, and often, the courage
of whistleblowers and others who work to ensure that the
Madison/Jefferson County public actually learn what it has a right to
know.
As
a privately owned website, we reserve the right to remove or edit any
comment.
Comments that contain spam, advertising, vulgarity, threats of
violence, racism, anti-Semitism, or personal or abusive attacks on other
users will be removed.
