The Courier-Journal, published under that flag for 143 years, once more hauls out the big guns to cover Louisville's biggest annual event: the Run for the Roses. Post time is 6:24 p.m. ET on NBC.
Last week's royal wedding doesn't have a monopoly on hats; check out the ever-popular derby hats slide shows, here and here. The C-J has a Derby app for iPhone and Android. Pray for sun amid a forecast that could bring rain. And pray, pray, pray that the paper's presses don't fail -- like they did last year!

ReplyDeleteHas the Derby become cursed? Last year the press in Louisville broke down. This year a TV station in Georgia went to commercial during the race.
ReplyDeleteAs for the Courier-Journal? That front page shouts it out loud: major-event hype + government propaganda + military worship. Nothing smells sweeter to Gannett like a publication tailored to please the rich and powerful.
and what is the story behind the vp of advertising out? lot's of openings in metro papers.
