Guest Speaker: Mark Young is a former Army Ranger who served in the 1980s and the son of a Green Beret Vietnam Vet who served three tours in Southeast Asia. His Dad did tours in Laos and Cambodia just before the official start of the war and then did a tour in Vietnam during the war’s first year. His mother finally made him stay home after he was born.

Both of his brothers also served in the Army, one of which was also a Green Beret and worked for the military as a contractor during the War on Terror.

Mark will speak on his experiences with McClatchy and the Bradenton Herald during the Trump administrations and the many examples of anti-Trump biases he witnessed. And, what it has been like as a conservative working in liberal newsrooms.
