  • "Louisville’s adult entertainment ordinance bans nudity at strip clubs and imposes other restrictions. But according to a Fox41 report, it may also keep conventions out of town.The story presents the case of one visitor to the annual Farm Machinery Show who says he would rather stay home than attend a convention in a city without nude dancers. But he’s the only person quoted in the Fox41 story who says he would not return to Louisville if the ordinance stands. No one else in the story has a firsthand account, though two interviewees offer anecdotes." [WFPL]
