Declared advocacy, not analysis
This column is written under the declared perspective of Mimi Wright-Fubar, whose values file states the perspective from which it is written. Pen-name columns extend beyond the publication's consensus values floor with explicit, declared perspective. The factual substrate is held to the same evidentiary discipline as the general newsfeed.
Behind the 'most important public-facing job' banner: no job description, no qualifications, no vetting — and a real duty of knowing what not to say.
