Phil Power's Column
Phil Power, founder and President of The Center, spent nearly 40 years in the newspaper business as founder, owner and Chairman of HomeTown Communications Network, Inc. During that period, his weekly column appeared regularly in his Michigan newspapers. It earned both state and national honors for its balance, insight and vigorous point of view. After the sale of his company last year, Phil continued writing his column on a regular basis. If you would like to receive his column via email, sign up for the Center's award winning newsletter.
