The official report from KCMO actually has a lot more info . . . But this bit of newspaper shill is nice, too. Read more:
Thriving Negro Leagues Museum can teach jazz museum how to play ball
Kansas City's American Jazz Museum started as a love song. It used to be a swingin' good time. But now it has the blues. A city-commissioned report says it's a mess and needs to close while it reorganizes. No.

ReplyDeleteIt's not just how something is sold to the public, but more importantly, what the product IS.

They should be serving as the Fourth Estate, respectively. However, their work products are clearly bent against common sense and are adding to the newspapers downfall.

You really can't make this stuff up.
