For those of us in Maryland...

Article in the Frederick News Post today on the horse industry:

Ah. I always wonder why they do those pieces.

Ah. I always wonder why they do those pieces.

Better that than another article on Brittany Spears!!!! :LOL:

Ah. I always wonder why they do those pieces.

Because it's Frederick and we are still quite the country folk here :lol:.

Ah. I always wonder why they do those pieces.

And because the issue of slots and the impact on the horse industry is quite a key issue here.

Also, it's a slow news day. ;)

[LexInVA]

They didn't really touch on that though. It looks like someone just copied and pasted text from an MD Ag brochure or something. I wouldn't even call it an article. But that's what passes for journalism these days.

Honestly, I'm glad that it's not another Brittney Spears article, also!

As far as O'Mally, well.......I sure hope that racing can survive in MD.

My vote is : slow news day, lazy / overworked content provider (not sure we could call that article journalism) and the thought that hey, at least an article about horses would give them the opportunity to put a nice picture of a horsey in the news paper. Sigh.
