Alan Guebert: Why are you giving extreme voices so much attention?

Alan Guebert The Farm and Food File The last column of the year usually features comments from readers whose views differ from those found here the previous 50 or so weeks. Most point out, often in vivid language, the shortcomings of my ideas, opinions, and increasingly the “fake news” I peddle through both. At least that’s how it has been for at least 25 post-Christmas columns.

The Farmer s Exchange Online Democracy Has Failed to Protect America s Rural Communities

Published: Friday, December 18, 2020 The following is from Alan Guebert, a freelance agricultural journalist from Illinois. In early 1999, I wrote a column about lions and gazelles. More precisely, I wrote a column on how, in the 1990s, American livestock farmers had become gazelles in the brutal world of global agriculture. What that meant was Every morning the gazelle awakens knowing it must run faster than the fastest lion to live to see tomorrow while the lion awakens knowing it must run only as fast as the slowest gazelle.
