Today, the Courier Journal "apologized" to John Calipari
via this letter:
Dear Coach Calipari,
Please accept our apology for the inappropriate illustration used with a column in last Friday’s Courier-Journal. The illustration reflected neither the tone of the column it accompanied nor our editorial standards.
This was a failure in our procedures. We have reiterated to those involved and our entire staff that any illustration of this nature must be approved by senior editors, which did not happen in this case.
We regret that this episode cast a bad light on you and the University of Kentucky basketball team.
Sincerely,
Neil Budde
Executive Editor
Guess they realized that running a cartoon of Calipari as a baby wasn't the smartest marketing move in the world.
