Video lottery parlors have been warned to stick with the advertising limits deemed unconstitutional by a federal judge -- but the admonition isn't coming from the Lottery Commission.
Instead, companies that own the machines and lease them to the parlors have demanded a return to the status quo, and vow to strip machines from bars and clubs that don't comply.
The Associated Press has details, as does MetroNews. A spokesman for the leasing companies explained his group's stance on Talkline (with audio).
The Intelligencer of Wheeling also catches some of the fallout from last week's ruling, including jubilation by a former state lawmaker and congressional candidate who wants to act on the decision at his club.
Update: Gov. Joe Manchin is also warning the video lottery retailers, the Charleston Daily Mail reports.
