Gaming the system...
Most of the first 26 businesses to win Kentucky medical cannabis cultivator and processor licenses from its lottery system are tied to marijuana companies based in other states, one of which likely submitted hundreds of applications. lpm.org/news/2024-11-25/kent…

Cannot endorse this place enough
Through the love and loyalty of its customers, and plenty of chicken shawarma, Safier Mediterranean Deli has become a staple in downtown Louisville.
Watch, listen to and read out latest episode of "Now Eat This" -- all about the local food scene.

“It has been wonderful.” Great sign off from the legendary @FredCowgillWLKY
Proud of these two, the editors who support their work, and the team at @KentuckyCIR. This is an example of investigative journalism that will make people's lives better.
Had the honor of judging this year’s Daniel Schorr prize @WBUR - recognizing a rising public media journalist under the age 35 year.
You’ve got to take a listen to the winning entry from @jaredtbennett and @Hicks_JustinM at Louisville Public Media.

Local matters in Louisville that Frankfort would prefer to control:
-Elections
-Zoning
-Schools
-Taxes
-Guns
-Merger
Louisville's going to look a lot different in the coming years. The Kentucky General Assembly has voted to end some partisan elections, freeze zoning ordinances and explore the breakup of Jefferson County Public Schools. From @SylviaRuthG lpm.org/news/2024-03-28/kent…
Audit: Maybe the emails never existed. “This possibility was perhaps supported by a JCPS leader who stated they felt encouraged to use cell phone texting instead of district email because it was perceived that texting was less subject to open records requirements."
There is just so much in here, you’ve really got to read this story so you don’t have to read the 248-page report. “Audit reveals JCPS botched transportation rollout the result of sprawling central office failures” lpm.org/news/2024-03-25/audi…
We've still got it. #GoCards
You shouldn't need a lawyer to know what your government is doing.
Want to know what was behind the bus debacle that left children lost and unreachable for hours and led JCPS to close school for six days this fall? We sure do.
Yesterday, @LouPubMedia filed a lawsuit against @JCPSKy over the district’s failure to produce key public records regarding the transportation meltdown.

Great #kyleg reporting by @sylviaruthg
It started with frantic Googling as the sponsor read his source list on the House floor. One unlikely source was Ta-Nehisi Coates, a famed journalist and activist. Another was about vacant properties and crime.
Didn’t seem to have anything to do with longer prison sentences

We won't.
We've all benefited from @RyanVanVelzer's environmental in-depth and investigative coverage. Let's hope @WFPLNews /@LouPubMedia doesn't give up on a beat previously so ably covered by @kristingourlay and @ericampeterson
