I’ve held back from criticizing the Courier-Journal quite a bit lately, but the paper’s website has been puzzling the past several days.

Mmm Hmmm
Since when does agriculture have anything to do with sports? Innocent mistake, sure. But why is this sort of thing happening every day?
And what’s with that full-page ad the other day hyping the C-J’s web presence while keeping the most-read sports columnist in the area – Eric Crawford – in print-only?
Maybe the folks at 5th & Broadway should start paying more attention to their own product and the news they’re supposed to spread instead of freaking out about what photographs we use to promote the various media outlets in town?
Head spinning.

It’s “Ruh Ro” – not “Rut Ro”…
