AP Cynically Hits Wis. Gov. Walker For 'Keeping a Safe Distance' When

May 28th, 2012 10:35 PM
Leave it to the Associated Press's Scott Bauer to take shots at Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker -- in seeming orchestration with Democratic Party officials -- for limiting his public recall election appearances because of unsafe conditions leftists in the Badger State have created, "public safety" officials have too often condoned, and the establishment press has generally downplayed for well…

Daily Kos Distorts Old Scott Walker Clip to Insist He Was Soft on Davi

May 22nd, 2012 11:18 PM
On Daily Kos, Jesse LaGreca calls himself “Ministry of Truth.” That moniker certainly doesn’t match his latest blog post, headlined “Young Scott Walker downplays KKK Grand Dragon David Duke's extremism”. Using a very selectively edited video, LaGreca asserts “Walker can beat up on labor rights but he couldn't bring himself to bad mouth another Republican, even if that Republican is a self…

May 11th, 2012 10:18 AM
You've probably already heard about how reforming Wisconsin governor Scott Walker managed to get more votes than his top two Democratic challengers in that state's primary. What you may not know is the reason why: The state is booming contrary to the dire predictions of the union bosses who swore that Walker's reforms would destroy the Badger State. Walker's choice to reform and cut the budget…

May 9th, 2012 9:54 AM
(Note to commenters: This post is the first one on NB which uses Disqus for commenting purposes.) While liberals have been waxing rapsodic about Greece and France voting for wasteful socialism, conservatives last night have two victories to be crowing about in Wisconsin and Indiana.

Open Thread: Union Boss Lowers Expectations for Walker Recall

May 8th, 2012 9:04 AM
Wisconsin Republican Scott Walker has been the target of government union bosses since he began talking about a series of small reforms designed to preserve state employee pensions without breaking the budget. Despite the crony millions being spent, however, Walker seems likely to be able to stave off the union attempt to depose him in a recall election. That likelihood is perhaps what…

Wisconsin Unemployment Falls; NBC Hypes Job Losses 'Many Blame' on Sco

April 30th, 2012 5:30 PM
Despite Wisconsin's unemployment rate being well below the national rate and steadily falling, on Saturday's NBC Nightly News correspondent Ron Allen selectively hyped job losses: "With the protesters serenading Wisconsin's Governor Scott Walker and urging voters to recall him from office June 5th, the state's job losses add to the list of grievances.

When It Comes to Scott Walker, Media Think Bias Is the New Objectivity

April 6th, 2012 10:40 AM
The journalism industry has a problem. The core principles of objectivity and impartiality have become a lost art, now we’re left with bias and hypocrisy. This disconcerting reality has been recently heightened with the revelation that journalists from both the print and broadcast media in the Badger State have signed petitions to recall Governor Scott Walker. Instead of doing some soul-…

Malkin Column: The War on Wisconsin

March 28th, 2012 3:54 PM
Now is the time for all good tea partiers to come to the aid of Wisconsin. Fiscally conservative leaders in the Badger State are under coordinated siege from Big Labor, the White House, the liberal media and the judiciary. The yearlong campaign of union thuggery, family harassment and intimidation of Republican donors and businesses is about to escalate even further. This is the price the Right…

Not National News: 29 'Impartial' Wis. Judges Sign Scott Walker Recall

March 21st, 2012 3:19 PM
If Scott Walker somehow loses his recall election in Wisconsin, will that be national news? Of course it will. Well, if the Walker recall really is a national story, why isn't it news that 29 judges who are supposed to be impartial in their rulings and who are under strict prohibitions against political activity were found by Gannett News to have signed petitions supporting Walker's recall…

Ed Schultz Lets Slide Obvious Lie About Scott Walker From Union Boss L

February 22nd, 2012 6:52 PM
Ed Schultz prides himself on all the time he's spent in Wisconsin over the last year, acting as bellicose cheerleader for its public-sector unions. Alas, much of that time was wasted as shown by Schultz ignoring or not catching a blatant falsehood about Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker from Leo Gerard, president of United Steelworkers (audio after page break)

Yes, Rachel Maddow, Scott Walker Balanced Wisconsin Budget Without Rai

February 18th, 2012 8:54 PM
Liberals love to harp on what they perceive as Republican failure. What they truly loathe is Republican success. A fine example of this predictable dynamic can be seen in MSNBC's febrile coverage of Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker and his efforts to turn around the Badger State's disastrous finances.
