If no news is good news, then all the news is good at SEC Football Media Days, where hundreds of media types gather to hear much ado about very little. The Clevelands discuss what’s going on this week in Nashville where SEC football coaches aren’t about to give away any top secrets. They could use a little Steve Spurrier to pump things up this week. Also, The Open (formerly known as the British Open) begins Thursday and Rory McIlroy and Scottie Scheffler are the favorites.

Podcast: In or out (of the NCAA Tournament)?

Investigations made possible by you, Mississippi

Mississippi Today’s “Unfettered Power: Mississippi Sheriffs” investigation has been named a finalist for the 2024 Pulitzer Prize for Local Reporting.

The 2023 investigation from the Mississippi Center for Investigative Reporting at Mississippi Today and The New York Times revealed how Mississippi sheriffs rule like kings, wielding vast power, exploiting and abusing the very people they are called to protect with no one stopping them.

As we celebrate being named a finalist for the 2024 Pulitzer Prize for Local Reporting, we hope you will consider making a charitable gift to Mississippi Today. Will you help sustain our prize-winning investigative reporting team by setting up a recurring donation today?
