‘Comment’ will discuss race for governor

The quick start to this fall’s governor’s race will be one of the topics on this week’s “Comment on Kentucky,” a public affairs show of the Kentucky Educational Television network.

Joining substitute host Bill Bryant of Lexington’s WKYT-TV will be three Frankfort reporters: Roger Alford of the Associated Press, Ronnie Ellis of CNHI News and Jack Brammer of the Lexington Herald-Leader.

The 30-minute show airs Friday at 8 p.m. EDT on KET1. It also will be broadcast at 6:30 a.m. Saturday on KET KY, 7:30 a.m. Sunday on KET KY, 12:30 p.m. Sunday on KET 1, 8 a.m. Monday on KET KY and 7:30 p.m. Monday on KET KY.

It was taped Thursday night because Friday is a furlough day for most state workers, including KET employees.

The show’s permanent host, Ferrell Wellman, is to return next week after recuperating since February from a knee injury.
