Description

The Lexington Herald-Leader (Sunday) is an American weekly newspaper covering local news, politics and community life across Lexington and central Kentucky. It’s the Sunday issue of the Lexington Herald-Leader, first published in 1870. As the leading title for the Bluegrass region, it keeps close watch on state politics, along with the bourbon and thoroughbred horse industries that define the local economy. Breaking news and investigative work further examine the latest topics affecting residents throughout the whole region. The rural and urban mix that shapes much of central Kentucky’s culture also gets regular attention, from working horse farms to rolling countryside. Fans can also find comprehensive coverage of University of Kentucky Wildcats athletics and regional high school sports throughout the season. The newspaper’s many years of steady, authoritative coverage have made it a go-to source for readers throughout the Bluegrass region. Available on PressReader, the Lexington Herald-Leader Sunday newspaper delivers comprehensive weekly coverage from across central Kentucky.
