📻 Here’s Governor Matt Bevin on why Republicans majorities can’t snowplow state legislation, the subpoena for lists of JCPS “sickout” teachers, if an unfocused Coach Jeff Walz caused his Louisville women’s team to lose to UConn, budget cutting advice for the Louisville mayor, the Adam Edelen jingle taunt, Gill Holland’s MIA tax returns, and the governor’s contention that retirees ❤️ higher taxes, 🎙️ LISTEN tinyurl.com/y3el2kto
Naturally, Governor Bevin’s comments about Jeff Walz created a firestorm, hitting most national media outlets.
ZING!@GovMattBevin says if @CoachJeffWalz paid more attention to the basketball court than him the @UofLWBB would have won. Says Walz was “out coached.” #KYGov

Here is @GovMattBevin's full comments about @CoachJeffWalz on @terrymeiners show if you missed them.
"If he had been a little more focused on game strategy and coaching that weekend and a little less on this kind of silliness, the better team would have won" pic.twitter.com/9TFU0Ct6gC— Jason Riley (@JasonRileyWDRB) April 10, 2019
🏀 @CoachJeffWalz hammers @GovMattBevin for cheering UK men's team making #EliteEight. Media jumps in. 🔥 Bevin congratulates @UofLwbb at noon today but @louisvillemayor didn't get around to tweeting until several hours later. Media: crickets. 🤣 #loumedia #kymedia pic.twitter.com/fJPGiTIdXw

I frequently post on media matters. Today's rote media hysteria spotlights poor research habits of writers. Background info like Bevin's prior texts would have added proper context to the overall "story" but no one thought to do it (or editors clipped it). The tardy mayor adds 🙄 pic.twitter.com/dxfEKAI6LX
