Kansas City Star Sells Nothing-Burger Royals Ticket Hit Piece

Before we even get started . . .

EVERY ELECTED OFFICIAL IN KANSAS CITY, MO GETS ALLOTTED CHIEFS & ROYALS TICKETS!!!

That's an unfair but fun-fact that everyone older than 30 in Kansas City already knows.

Grow up and stop making your life harder by believing political ethics taught by School House Rocks.

The real punchline . . . Most of the time these tickets are pretty much worthless and serve as more of a burden to elected officials. 

However . . .

What we notice from this Star report is that it's just a hit piece with very little value to readers and mostly serving to strengthen their political connections.
