Bottom of the story...
In Chicago, where the once mighty Blackhawks stumble near the bottom of the standings these days, the Chicago Tribune played the NHL labour story on page 8 of the sports section. The lead item was the Cubs' victory over Pirates.
The Chicago Sun-Times played the NHL story 15 pages into the sports section. Top billing was a full-page teaser to a column on the Athletics-Rangers dustup.
The Dallas Morning News also led with the baseball brawl. There was no mention of the NHL labour situation.
The Miami Herald and the South Florida Sun-Sentinel led Wednesday with the Marlins win in Chicago over the Expos. The Herald played the lockout on the front below the fold while the Sun-Sentinel had it on page 9.
Papers in St. Louis, Columbus and Atlanta had the story on the front of their sports sections.
So did the Tennessean in Nashville, although top spot on the sports front went to the NFL Titans signing kicker Gary Anderson.
