It's not a news story. I believe the premise for the write up is to ameliorate any misgivings among the public (Ma & Pa Hoosier Kettle)may harbor for the multimillions in taxpayer dollars given to IMS in recent years.

They might just be providing cover for the legislator idiots who "invested" all those tax dollars into the Speedway on some specious grounds covering not much with their fig leaf talking points. So, it is yippy yi yo, groundlings, see what's cool because of our legislative acumen! It might surprise duh Star to discover (somehow) how many Hoosiers have never attended a 500 mile race.

Yeah, I love how the Star is now in the business of selling overpriced real estate on behalf of realtors who are either too incompetent or too lazy to do it on their own.

If you go to the Star's Website today (fair warning have a barf bag near you) you have what amounts to a Real Estate ad about "Hot Property" ,13 country acts headed to some music center and then Sports, Sports, and more Sports.
Our McMega-Media has serious issue of hyping up the trivial.

Indianapolis hasn't had a strong media for several years. They parrot what the network does and rarely uncover fraud and abuse on a local level.

I think PSLs at Stan Kroenke's new stadium are going for more than $5MM and there's going to be about 70,000 of those. LOL. If I was the Speedway or Indy tourism prostit, uh, officials, I'd be embarrassed by this. Their brand has no value.

The news media is a joke. I chuckle each time I see the Indianapolis Star announce that its "Call for Action" hotline is open. When did newspapers start investigating consumer complaints? I also find it amusing that the "hotline" is apparently operated by octogenarians.

Anyway, my point is that these news outlets should be take their positions as the fourth estate seriously and inform taxpayers/voters about news that really matters!
