The obvious points missed that scream for attention is that Greenwood, the owner operator of Parx is a foreign based company and their cut of the slots revenue is far greater than the horse racing industry's share. Of course the only reason that parx/greenwood has slots is because of horseracing however that point always goes unnoticed. As for the conspiracy theory that the state is behind the article I would say that considering the buffoonery who make up the state politicians in PA it would be highly unlikely. However IMO conspiracy filled mind the most likely source of this and other anti-racing articles is upper level management at Parx. They stand to gain the most with an elimination of racing.
