@Carterhaus23 @kyhighs Hi @Carterhaus23, I’m with WHAS11 in Louisville. Did you take this video? If so, do we have your permission to use on air and online? We’ll credit you of course.

It's derby eve, and @WHAS11 is giving you access to the most exclusive parties in town. @josealonzotv and @EmmaLeah24 will be out with the stars at Unbridled Eve, while @AlexDedererTV and Aspen Hester are heading to the original Derby Eve party... Barnstable Brown! Live at 11!

I love telling people I’m from Louisville when I’m out of town because EVERYONE has a connection. I’ve met people who went to elementary school there, once lived there, or have family in the city. Such a small world.

[Megan Short @mnshort11]

@AlyssaKNewton I'm just slightly disappointed I didn't get to have a @WHAS11Kent report on this...

As journalists, we don’t do our jobs for the awards, but it’s always an honor to have that work recognized. Proud of the @WHAS11 NightTeam for winning Best Newscast from the Kentucky Broadcasters Association!

[Kent Spencer @WHAS11Kent]

Give @AlyssaKNewton something simple like a first pitch.... and she does this.... a true talent who has fun.

Thanks to @LouisvilleBats for allowing me to throw the first pitch... had a little heat on @WHAS11 Night at the Bats.

[Megan Short @mnshort11]

When planning for Derby this year, I knew we had to have a Secretariat story, and of course I thought of @WHAS11Doug. Needless to say, he and @ky_phojo delivered. This one is definitely worth a watch.🏇

It's been a heavy week in Louisville.
Monday a mass shooting killed five people. Since then seven others have died from gun violence.

At the end of the Chickasaw shooting presser tonight I asked LMPD Deputy Chief Paul Humphrey what was on his heart. This is what he had to say: @WHAS11

[Megan Short @mnshort11]

So proud of how much you've grown over the last year! You can make a NightTeam guest appearance anytime.

[Bobbi McSwine @McSwineBNews]

The end of an era 🥹 tonight was my last night on the NightTeam. I’ll be on the day shift starting Monday morning. It’s just a shift change, but this absolutely deserves a post because I love this team with all of my heart ❤️ Thanks for pouring into
me! Y’all are rockstars🥹
