I read the Leader Times and The Butler Eagle. I have noticed a great difference in the coverage of the movie production in Kittanning. You would think that the "local" paper, the Leader Times, would be all over it. Not so. The Butler Eagle has outdone them in reporting the events. I have found more information on the movie in The Butler Eagle than the Leader Times. Compare Saturday's papers for just one example. Leader Times has a picture of the bridge with a sightseer taking photographs and a caption under the picture describing it. The Butler Eagle has almost 1 and 1/2 pages of stories on the filming with 7 pictures. This is not the first time I have noticed this. Has anyone else noticed the lack of coverage? I would think they would play it up to sell more papers.
