Still think no bias in our local news paper?

After I peruse through the sports section on Sunday, and my wife clips her coupons, I turn to the business section. Journalists like Kathleen Gallagher have done a remarkable job with the Business section despite what they have to work with. However, what I read (not from Mss. Gallagher) is as bad as it gets. And what is most frustrating is most liberals don’t even know what I’m about to report.

An article in Sunday’s Milwaukee Journal/Sentinel found that Governor Doyle (D) fudged the high-speed rail job numbers so to attract more of our taxpayer money. Where was this article placed? Hidden in the Business section of all places! For those that recall, Doyle’s campaign for stimulus money has been touted as front page news, or at least section A (and I’m not even bringing up Obama’s corrupt increase in job numbers so to pretend the stimulus is creating jobs).  So why place this very damaging article in the Business section and not the front page? I asked the paper but they have yet to give me an answer.

Doyle’s untruthfulness (is that better than if I said “lie?”) about his earlier, super news stories where high-speed rail will create 13,000 new jobs here in Wisconsin, was placed as top news. However, a Journal/Sentinel reporter discovered that only 4,732 jobs will be created instead of the 13,000 Doyle used for the grant application so to receive more stimulus money. That’s about two thirds less than Doyle previously claimed. Bad journalism? No. Bad placement by management? Absolutely. Those that read the front page and Section A most likely have no clue that the fake job numbers, reported by our dishonest governor, are no longer. Here Doyle lies (oops, “didn’t quite tell the true story”) and our only paper doesn’t bother to give this huge discrepancy top billing. It gets better.

Two weeks to the day, the Journal/Sentinel did another bias piece of journalism. In the business section on January 24^th (sound familiar?), it was reported that Obamacare would bring tremendous cost burdens to Wisconsin citizens. All the while the democrats kept telling us that Obamacare will not cost us diddly. But it will to almost every Wisconsinite. Big deal? You better believe it’s a big deal! Most of those who voted for Obama may not even know any of this since that article was also hidden in the Business section. I ask why these very damaging articles against Obamacare and Doyle were not on the front page or headline news? Most, if not all, the baloney and the so-called good news about Obamacare and the job increases due to high-speed rail have been billed as top news stories over the past 12-14 months. And both articles dealt with huge problems right here in our own state. One would think the Milwaukee JS would also make those stories headline news.

Both articles should have been top billing and in the same place as all the other articles that pointed out for years all the so-called "good news" that comes from our corrupt democrats. Did the Milwaukee J/S show bias? I report the bias, you decide.
