Naturally, a handful of KDRP staffers are on the defensive claiming this is an unecessarily negative story while wholly ignoring that Beshear just a few weeks ago held a presser urging everyone to check the damn box – insinuating that she does so herself. What the mainstream won’t tell you: This was brought to the attention of the Beshears last year. [C-J/AKN]
