À propos de cet audio
William Cowper Brann was Waco’s most notorious voice at the end of the 19th century—a journalist who built a national following by attacking politicians, preachers, and Baylor University itself. He had a gift for outrage, a talent for cruelty, and an uncanny ability to make enemies everywhere he went.
In this episode of Your Waco Weekend, we visit his grave in Oakwood Cemetery and trace the arc of his story, the scandal he couldn't let go of, and the street fight that ended his life. Brann’s story isn’t quaint local history—it’s a reminder of how dangerous words can be.
