It isn't that simple BC...as someone who has worked in a newspaper himself, and read the pages before going to the printer, they can't just drop a story in if it doesn't make deadline. As noteworthy a victory as it was (and it certainly was), if they wanted to put a story in about that, whether from the AP, a reporter or otherwise, if they already have their budget for that day's edition laid out, they would have to drop another, probably equally noteworthy, story to make room. Im sure someone in the newsroom was following the race but they can't simply drag and drop stories in the paper however they wish. If they put the story in about William Byron's victory, especially if they use a story from the AP or other wire reports, that means they remove another story and have to completely reformay the affected pages and other trickle down effects that could jeopardize getting it printed on time.
