Seriously?
Might a wee bit of this "adult supervision" be advisable for some of your other Insider Louisville writers?
Hint: I'm thinking of this fellow named Tierney.
Full disclosure: I've known Curtis for ten years or so, ever since I was a tenant during his in real estate days.
Can't say I have a dog in this fight; just curious as to your selective application of the supervision doctrine. Tierney's beer blather in the Forecastle series was about as wrongheaded as you're accusing Curtis of being.
Just saying.

Terry Boyd: The curious case of Curtis Morrison
Curtis Morrison
Last night, I got emails from Ruby Cramer, a reporter atBuzzFeed.
Cramer wanted Curtis Morrison’s contact information.
All I could tell her is, “Curtis is no longer a contributor to Insider Louisville.”
Which is a shame.
Curtis has the makings of a solid reporter, under adult supervision.
Exceptional when it comes to getting public documents under the Freedom of Information Act, then squeezing out all the data and nuances on the way to documenting an important story.
Unfortunately, Curtis is also an overt and dedicated political activist, and you can’t be both at the same time at Insider Louisville.
It was my mistake to keep Curtis without an explicit guarantee he wouldn’t indulge in politics.
A painful lesson we’ll never repeat.
