THE MALCONTENT has a good news/bad news kind of vibe. We’ll explore the ideas that make our world go ‘round. Big ideas and small ideas, on all sorts of topics. Sometimes we’ll like what we discover. Sometimes we won’t. But one thing is for sure — THE MALCONTENT is a place for independent journalism without the corporate overlords or agendas.
