Indianapolis Business Journal

Coverage of the repercussions of the COVID-19 crisis dominates our front page this week. Reporters Mickey Shuey and Kurt Christian hit the trenches to learn what small businesses are doing to survive. Samm Quinn explores the challenges facing low-wage workers, who typically have very little cushion for work stoppages. And Greg Andrews has a fascinating piece about the Indianapolis-based NCAA, which was forced to cancel March Madness. The group relies heavily on the hundreds of millions of dollars it earns annually through its TV contracts for the tournament. This raises the question of how the governing body for collegiate sports can function without that revenue.
