Why?
Because Wisconsin's media echo-chamber created this monster and it had nothing to do with serving Wisconsin.
MJS has NEVER published anything that looks at Walker's record-setting travel and national promotion in a meaningful way. Wisconsin has never had such a shameless self-promoter -- all at the expense of the Badger State.
But the biggest media outlets don't want you to know it. We have a jet-setting divide-and-conquer governor because this is what the media promoted.
And while WTMJ-AM is more hateful and racist, no one lead the pro-walker choir more than Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.
Anon@7:12 - Shepherd Express covered this carefully and well in 2013. And it was ignored. Thank gods Scooter is running for pres - out of state media will be doing the job in-state media won't. But remember, if you have an electorate that's not all that interested in the activities of its leaders, your leaders will get away with anything. http://expressmilwaukee.com/article-permalink-21773.html

What water, wetland protection is all about
"A little fill here and there may seem to be nothing to become excited about. But one fill, though comparatively inconsequential, may lead to another, and another, and before long a great body may be eaten away until it may no longer exist. Our navigable waters are a precious natural heritage, once gone, they disappear forever," wrote the Wisconsin Supreme Court in its 1960 opinion resolving Hixon v. PSC and buttressing The Public Trust Doctrine, Article IX of the Wisconsin State Constitution.
