GUEST COLUMNIST MAKING THE MOST OF HER SHOT …
It’s been a little over a year since we offered “Republican” columnist Taylor Brown a guest gig on our website.
How’s she done? Exceedingly well …
Brown, 24, has become an invaluable contributor on FITS – offering insightful commentary regarding local, state and national political issues. She’s also parlayed her exposure on this site (some of it quite enjoyable exposure) into promising career opportunities in the S.C. State House lobby and on the campaign trail.
She got her shot … and continues to make the most of it.
Obviously this website doesn’t always agree with Brown on the issues – but we knew that we asked her to write for us. She’s a “Republican,” and we’re clearly … well, not. That doesn’t matter, though. Brown always makes substantive arguments in support of her beliefs … and she’s not afraid to put her own personal experiences (even difficult experiences) out there in defense of what she believes.
That’s truly commendable …
Also impressive? Brown has successfully navigated the (at-times) jarringly caustic comments section of our website … not to mention her fair share of real-world political controversies.
She’s shown she can take the heat, in other words … and keep dishing out her commentary in spite of the criticism.
We’re very proud of Brown’s contributions to FITS … and look forward to reading more from her as she works her craft (and her growing network of sources at the S.C. State House during the upcoming legislative session).
We would also like to extend an invitation to other aspiring young writers who are looking to make a name for themselves on the Palmetto political scene. Whether you agree with our editorial bent or not, we’re always eager to help talented newcomers showcase their skills on the state’s political stage.
So feel free to email us here if you are interested in being a contributor …

It’s about time I was offered a job.When do I start? :)
When Clemson wins another national championship or a Heisman.
Damn.My career is over.
Databoy!!!
Why buy the cow when you’re already getting the milk for free, … even if the milk is a little spoiled at times?
:-D
That’s fair. :) Keep up the good work.
“seesaw swingin’ with the boys in the schooland your feet flyin’ up in the air
singin’ “hey diddle diddle”
with your kitty in the middle of the swing
like you didn’t care”
Are those really the words?!? I thought it was:
She starts singin
With the boys in/tune
And she sweeps muck up in the air
Singin hey fat RINO with the big ol hind’O
and she wrote like she just don’t care
So Will took a big/chance
When he looked her askance
With a Taylor who was ready to say
It wasn’t Will she foolin
Cause she knew that she was/doin
when she told him she had something to say
Taylor is 24 years of age as this news is another “first reported here by the founding editor Will Folks on Fitsnews”
Taylor, you are officially on my exclusive list of “Eligible Women Between the Ages of Consent and Collapse” …..
Young people are awful.I’ve got prescription refills older than her…
clever!
You have to be careful these days. If you get involved with somebody you have to know their health history. The best way to find out is to look through their medicine cabinet. It tells you what they don’t have. With this one girl, I opened up the medicine cabinet, it was empty. I thought, “Jeez, I don’t know what she’s got, but whatever it is, there ain’t no cure for it!”
When Taylor started writing for Fits, I thought she was dumber than a bag of skid marks. She has truly advanced and evolved, in the quality of her writing and in her application of logic.
Congratulations on your first year, Taylor!!!! Keep up the good work!
Yes, I agree. She has impressed me in much the same way.
My friend you fell in love when she started alleging every public servant in Columbia is a criminal. :)
Only about half are crooks. The other half are trying to do their job well despite the crooks.
“young” = underpaid by FITS
Taylor – Isn’t there some way you could try to influence others in your age group? Most of them are spoiled entitled idiots.
yea she is good as Man-D, Liz, Pixie Lesbian. Rising Star in her….own dam mind.
There is something of a precedent here.
Stay the course!
She brings an interesting perspective.
Taylor: You’re 24 so you’re a little behind the curve but there’s still time for you to start a real career.
She has been to NIKKI’S dentist. Same unnatural bleach job.
If she wants to be taken seriously at the State House maybe she shouldn’t wear clothes so short and tight. (They don’t flatter her). Her immaturity is glaringly obvious and she is the laughingstock of the lobby. Also her boobs aren’t that big so stop writing about them
