And you fail to give a source for the other graph. So, assuming your data is irrefutable, what will the new governor do to improve the states economy? Re-instate collective bargaining? Regulate and tax the large corporations? They are doing that to our south and judging by the governors new budget in Ill it doesn't seem to be working out so well.

WI is dead last in economic activity and six straight months of jobs losses. And Walker's 250K jobs? He's on pace to create only 28% of that number in four years, and that's only because of the gains that remained from Doyle's budget.capperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08751967312821403092noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5888314760091661875.post-13368807444077539192012-02-20T15:26:05.832-06:002012-02-20T15:26:05.832-06:00Point taken.

RW interests purchase the ad space, pressures sales to influence editorial and news functions. Pretty soon the advertisers are directing the content. That's why fewer and fewer people are subscribing to newspapers or listening to radio. I'm retired for pete's sake and I never watch the news anymore. I get my news first (and faster and more accurately) from Twitter. Soon most people will. That's the deathknell for papers and for radio.

Why are you able to make the connections and then expose this outfit as rightwing bias, but reporters and newspeople, who do this stuff for a living and have their reputations on the line, can't do this? Wouldn't you think that if they were going to actually quote someone they would know where the quote was actually coming from. Lamestream media, indeed.
