And yet not one word on our LOCAL MEDIA NEWS STATIONS.
WXYZ, WDIV, WJBK, DETROIT NEWS, OR DETROIT FREE PRESS.
On November 5th because of the Veto of funding to the ORC which in reality was already dissolved by Governor Granholm. Because of lack of money for racing officials. ALL 5 MICHIGAN HORSE TRACKS WILL HAVE TO CEASE OPERATION. That means ALL Simulcasting & Live Racing.
And yet the only Media coverage I’ve seen is on links below. Out of Mid/Mi.

Where the hell is our local Metro/Detroit media on this story?
Horse Tracks in Mi. only generates Millions & Millions of Dollars for MICHIGAN. But God knows Mi. doesn’t need the money.
And the date chosen by Granholm. Nov. 5th??? A day before two days of racing with BREEDER CUP RACES.
And on TOP OF IT ALL. The Casino to be put up on the former land Great Lakes Downs stood on may get FEDERALLY FUNDED FOR ROADWORK.
Local governments are working with the Little River Band to tap a $450 million federal fund to improve roads over the next several years. That money is shared among Indian groups nationwide for infrastructure upgrades.
MICHIGAN IS BROKE. BUT INDIANS ARE GOING TO GET TO TAP INTO A
$450,000,000 FEDERAL FUND FOR ROADWORK NEAR FUTURE CASINO???
So Again I urge ALL to contact our Local Media to why so MUM on Race Tracks being made to shut down.
