Lexington's WLEX-TV pulled Ky Sports Radio founder Matt Jones from his nightly TV show called Hey Kentucky. Jones suggested in an interview with me that political foes pushed the TV station to bench Jones or risk the loss of commercial revenue from PACs aiming to support other Democrats in the 2020 senate race. I did an interview with @terrymeiners about the @hey_kentucky situation. Listen if you are so inclined Also does anyone have a good Pike County dinner recommendation? https://t.co/FCpVfRtZwF— Matt Jones (@KySportsRadio) July 16, 2019 Journalist Al Cross says Matt Jones has an unfair advantage with his multiple media platforms, but that Jones "is not a journalist, he's an entertainer." In the 840WHAS Radio interview, Jones talked of

I got Moxie Talked!
Terry Minors Ver 16 -Legacy Master- 6-4-2019 TRT105 from MOXIETALK with KIRT JACOBS on Vimeo. Thanks to Kirt Jacobs for a comfortable chat about me, my life, and my career. I prefer asking questions of others but Kirt made this a pleasant experience. We taped it 7 months ago so I have very little memory of what was said but whatever it was...I said it with 100% sincerity. Thanks for watching. The fact that my last name is misspelled on the Vimeo makes me even happier. That's my life. Never get caught up in the little things, baby.

Mitch McConnell on Bevin’s tight primary win, impeachment value for GOP, Trump vs Pelosi, and vaping teens
After a surprisingly close primary win for Kentucky Governor Matt Bevin, I asked Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell if he would offer support for Bevin's re-election in the November general election. McConnell and Bevin have a complicated relationship stemming back to Bevin's campaign to unseat McConnell in 2014. The McConnell team labeled their opponent Bailout Bevin, calling him a con man and liar. Today on WHAS Radio, Senator McConnell promised to fully support Bevin's re-election. Kentucky's senior senator also touted attorney general candidate Daniel Cameron, a former McConnell staffer. Kentucky has not had a Republican attorney general since the 1940s. 📻 @senatemajldr Mitch McConnell on helping @GovMattBevin win in November, acrimony between @realDonaldTrump & @SpeakerPelosi, value of impeachment for @GOP, and raising cigs
Henry’s in the Hall of Fame
So proud of my childhood best buddy Dr. Henry Sadlo 👨🏼⚕️ Louisville's #1 cardiologist was just inducted into the St. Stephen Martyr Hall of Fame. @UofLPhysicians #PiperCourt #TheRuffians pic.twitter.com/z1AEWapHfd— Terry Meiners (@terrymeiners) May 17, 2019 Dr. Henry Sadlo has been my running mate since we met in 1963. There is not a kinder, more compassionate person on this earth. I'm delighted to see that he has been inducted into our elementary school's hall of fame. I went to UK and he went to UofL but that didn't slow our love and respect for each other. While Henry was away doing his medical school residency in Atlanta, I hung around with his dad, a kindred spirit. Henry and I still talk
That time I won the Kentucky Derby. Until I didn’t. But at least I won when I took Mary home.
Mary and I had a ball at Unbridled Eve and the next day at the 145th Kentucky Derby... ...until the racing stewards cancelled my winning ticket by disqualifying winner Maximum Security. Oops! Ain't gonna bump no more with no big, fat racehorse. Yahoo Sports columnist Pat Forde tells the jaw-dropping tale of unbridled elation followed by Maximum Security's designation as "a racing immortal for all the wrong reasons." President Trump weighed in with a misspelled tweet, later reposted with the correct spelling of Kentucky.
McConnell zings Dems’ Derby pick, eager to run against socialism in 2020
📻 Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell jumped on the radio with me to talk about chicken chomping Democrats, why he is proudly called The Grim Reaper, defining socialism in 2019, if investigating the investigators is overkill, Speaker Nancy Pelosi calling AG William Barr a criminal, Sen. Mazie Hirono lobbing 🔥 at Trump, just WHO IS REALLY IN CHARGE!, and Liberals' favorite Kentucky Derby horse 🎙️ 🏇🏽 840WHAS #USpolitics
Katherine Switzer broke through to give us the only genderless test of timed human athleticism
Katherine Switzer is an American hero, the first women to register and run the Boston Marathon back in the 60s when it was a male-only event. A race official spotted her and tried to yank her off of the course. Katherine and her colleagues weren't having it. She persisted and finished the race. It opened the gates for women's competition in all levels of sports. To this day, marathon running is the one true test of human athleticism without regard to gender. There are no red tees. There is no smaller sized ball. Lifting weights, riding bikes, pull-ups, javelin throws...they're all measurements of skill and endurance but marathon running is in a class of its own. The marathon course is 26.2
Jeremy Kappell misspoke and lost his job. This meteorologist refuses to fade into the sunset.
📻 Here's meteorologist Jeremy Kappell on his lawsuit vs Rochester's WHEC, the cruel actions of Rochester Mayor Lovely Warren & gutless TV general manager Dick Reingold, support from Al Roker, Don Lemon, Craig Melvin, and Rochester viewers, other weather people mispronouncing MLK without a beatdown, and how public shaming strengthened Jeremy's family & faith 🎙️ #bullies #media DETAILS on the Kappell website. Rochester Mayor Lovely Warren demanded Jeremy Kappell's firing without ever speaking to him or communicating with him in any capacity. Mayor Warren understands forgiveness as she is married to a man who drove the getaway car in a jewelry store robbery 20 years ago. She also defended a Rochester council member accused of embezzling tens of thousands of dollars,
