Politics: Rand Paul not exactly getting ripped by Kentucky’s local news

  • Nice find by The Atlantic. Rand Paul may be getting trashed on by the Washington establishment, but local coverage in Louisville seems to not be critical of him at all. This is WAVE, the NBC affiliate in the area. They actually seem to have gotten an interview with David Gregory, too. Too bad they wasted it on boilerplate reporting. source

Sports: Oh, and Michigan State did its alumni proud today

  • Yay home team! Rah! Rah! The No. 2 Spartans toppled No. 1 Louisville to get to the Final Four. They totally ruined our bracket, but we couldn’t think of a better team to ruin our bracket. (Note to fans of ShortFormBlog: We went to Michigan State University, graduated from its journalism program and hold a strong affinity for the school, Panchero’s burritos, Gumby’s Pizza, McDonel Hall and Tom Izzo. In fact, we think Izzo is the Midwestern Coach K that you can’t find a good reason to hate, so you love him. That is all.) source

Sports: Kentucky coach faces reckless homicide charges in player’s death

  • One of his players died after collapsing. High school football coach David Jason Stinson of Louisville, Ky. will be arraigned in the heat-related death of 15-year-old Max Gilpin. Gilpin, an offensive lineman, died three days after collapsing during a late-summer practice. Stinson, who’s been re-assigned to non-coaching and non-teaching duties in the wake of the incident, has many supporters among the student body, and proclaims his innocence. source
