Chrome Plated Microphone (Image from a found b&w photo of a Maine boy doing a radio show)

"As a matter of survival, Jerad assured himself, that going out live to all of Cumberland County was just as heroic as catching a football in an endzone.  Who cares if the topic was Mr. Fuzzy Tail and that his voice was coached to squeak in the highest register he could muster?  He knew that control of the media was the ultimate power, and that some day his boot would press hard on the necks of the popular kids.  The ball catchers, the well coiffed,  the vote getters,  he  would slay them all with his chrome plated microphone."
