A dutiful reader showed us a quip in last weeks Velocity, Gannetts lifestyle weekly, about how theyd won five first-place awards at Louisvilles Society of Professional Journalists awards ceremony recently leaving that other weekly in our dust.
The drinks hurt coming back through our noses. Then we got to thinking: How could this be? Did Velocity really leave LEO Weekly in its dust? Does the sun actually rotate around the earth?
Heres the truth: LEO took 19 awards overall, sweeping three categories. We won four first-place awards to Velocitys five. In total, Velocity won seven awards a full 12 less than LEO. Add to that The Courier-Journals take of five and Gannett properties scored 12 SPJ awards.
What was that Disraeli quote about lies, damned lies and statistics?
