Kentucky television station WHAS-11 sent a news crew to Aurora to find out whether Gov. Ernie Fletcher's anti-casino ads painted an accurate portrait of what a riverboat does to a community.
Through interviews with the mayor and police chief, as well as looking at statistics, the conclusion seems to be that Fletcher left quite a bit out of his 30-second campaign spot. The reality is that casinos pour money into a community and can improve an area, but there are social costs involved.
The interview in the barber shop sums it up pretty well.
