It's not because they endorsed Scott Walker - they also endorsed my man Russ. Playing both sides of the fence - I get it.

But their coverage of the Governor-Elect this week was not journalism. They seem to basically print his press releases and give him all kinds of power before he is even sworn into office.

I'm not happy about it.

Don't forget, while he did win re-election campaigns before - this is the first public office that Scott Walker has ever gained via a regular election.

Milwaukee deserves better coverage than this!

1. The anti-Muslim DVD they included during the 2008 campaign did it for me.
OK, I wasn't a subscriber, but I haven't purchased one of their papers since. My parents cancelled their subscription at that time.
