No-Show at the Car Show

This weekend's Annual Crimestoppers Car Show was well-attended by lots of folks...except the local media. 

This is a real head-scratcher for the Maven. Usually car shows attract large crowds, and offer TV stations plenty of visual content. 

So, for your listening and dancing pleasure, the Maven presents this Top Ten List direct from the home office in Tunker, Indiana:

Top Ten Reasons Fort Wayne Media Ignored the Annual Crimestoppers Car Show this weekend. 

10. "All our reporters went to Lallapaloosa in hopes of getting lucky. We were short-staffed." 

9. "Only old, blad, fat, white guys go to these events. Not our target audience".

8. "All that chrome would throw off too much glare, and damage our cameras".

7. "Does not help us advance the Defund The Police Movement we are told to support by local influencers."

6. "The cars run on fossil fuels and add to the carbon footprint."

5. "The cars were produced way before our reporters and anchors were born. They cannot relate"

4. "Was there free food and an open bar? We would have been there".

3. "Was the Mayor scheduled to appear? We always cover him, it's a state law".

2. "We heard that the General Mad Anthony Wayne guy was gonna be there".

Drumroll: And the number one reason Fort Wayne Media Ignored the Annual Crimestoppers Car Show this weekend: 

"Honestly, the dog ate the press release and pissed on the hand-outs. Sorry."
