Dr. S is seriously bummed that Satanās Spawn (aka the San Francisco Giants) defeated his beloved St. Louis Cardinals (the real Americaās team) in the National League Championship Series. But at least half of Dr. Sā World Series prediction came true as the formerly hard-luck Anaheim Angels advanced to the World Series for the first time in their mostly woeful 40-year history. But there will be no sympathy for the devil. My pick: Angels over Beelzebub & Co. in 6. Why? Because Gene Autry wanted it that way (a pity he died too soon to see it).

Mississippi native Donna Ladd and partner Todd Stauffer founded the Jackson Free Press in 2002 in the capital city. The heavily awarded local newspaper did many investigations heralded across the state and nation and served as a paper of record due to its diversity, inclusion, in-depth reporting and deep connection to readers and dedication to narrative change in and about Mississippi. In 2022, the nonprofit Mississippi Free Press, founded by Ladd and JFP Associate Publisher Kimberly Griffin in 2020, purchased the journalism assets and archives of the Jackson Free Press. A Google grant through AAN Publishers enabled Newspack's integration of the JFP archives into the Mississippi Free Press website to become part of a more searchable archive of recent Mississippi history and essential journalism.
