Wisconsin: Breitbart tries to smear WEAC, gets help from Urinal/Sentinel
Edited on Tue Sep-13-11 07:01 PM by Scuba
Andrew Breitbart is up to his old tricks. His website now has an article "reporting" that the National Support Organization - a union organization - is telling its members not to apply for jobs at WEAC because of abusive behavior on the Union's part.

http://biggovernment.com/tag/national-support-organization/

The Milwaukee Urinal/Sentinel picked it right up and reported it as news.

Problem is, there is no National Support Organization - at least they don't have a web site and the only hit on that name was Breitbart's article.

It refers to a National Staff Organization, but not a National Support Organization. Maybe the reporter was just stupid and too lazy to edit his own work, as seems likely.

3. Interesting. The articles refer to the Nat'l SUPPORT Org, not STAFF....
...but that's the wording.

2. Breitbart and the newspaper got the name wrong.
It's National Staff Organization.

I don't know anything about it, though.
