These were the top two headlines on the KC Star’s web site on Sunday afternoon. The earlier story said that 450 people were involved in the fight, while the later story clarified that only two dozen of the 450 present were involved in the fight.

Perhaps the Star’s web site doesn’t have a human supervisor on the weekends?

    Unless they’ve hired someone cheaper than what I charged- they haven’t staffed the news department overnight weekday or weekend since 1998.

    I was clued-in on the Harrah’s brawl when they put out the assist-the-officer call of the National Police Mutual-Aid channel (155.475).

    Number involved was and stayed around 20 people involved in the fracas.
