The 1% support their minions

Councilman Jim King has joined in my call for defunding Greater Louisville, Inc., albeit a month after he and the Council voted unanimously to fund them $500,000. Mayor Fischer went along with it, even though all "sky is falling"-stuff he talks about now, we knew then.

Would this defunding talk lead GLI to work on their image? Certainly. I've seen more about those scholarships they're giving to African American high school students in last few days than I have in last few years.

But alas, they're still in the business of connecting the rich and powerful together with our without our tax dollars, so they're going to slip up.
