WLEX Graphic Doesn’t Add Up

By Kevin Eck 

WLEX, the Lexington, KY, NBC affiliate aired a misspelled graphic on its Noon news Tuesday. The story was about five people who were arrested in a meth lab bust.

While the mistake was posted to the WLEX facebook page by one sharp eyed viewer another viewer commented, “investigators found a slide rule, an abacus, and several 16 and 17 year old’s doing differential equations…What has our society come to, this is KENTUCKY, we don’t do those things here.”
