WHEN & WHY I DO OR DON’T CALL OUT RANKIN COUNTY CRIME

Clay unleashes a fiery defense of his selective coverage on Rankin County scandals, blasting critics who accuse him of ignoring the bad while praising the good. "I've stood by the Sheriff's Office through the crap, but we've hammered the Goon Squad in no less than 27 full episodes – interviewed Jerry Mitchell, beat that drum louder than anyone!" he roars. But haters? Forget 'em: "You can't make 'em happy, so I don't try. I talk what I want – dope busts in Rankin? Hell yeah, to keep it safe. I don't owe Jackson 'balance' or racial equality scales. If I'm exposing fentanyl hauls, it's 'cause I want Rankin clean, not pandering. I didn't flee one hellhole for another!" It's raw independence: Clay picks topics to fight crime, award FAFOs, and preserve his turf, mutual friends be damned. No apologies – just unfiltered Clay owning the narrative!
