It cannot even be that -- take a look at this empty ballroom posted at Channel 3000 after the event starts and Pence is speaking:<br /><br />http://www.channel3000.com/news/politics/walker-to-attend-pence-rally-after-skipping-trump/41158006<br /><br />Channel3000 deserves credit for posting the picture that shows a more-than half empty ballroom, but they should have included attendance in the write up. Wisconsin is blanketed in propaganda -- the Pence visit to Wisconsin was a flop and the Walker Milwaukee event was embarrassingly so.<br /><br />But don't expect any media in Wisconsin to accurately report what happened today, but the pic at channel3000 does demonstrate how dysfunctional all Walker "news" published in Wisconsin is.<br /><br />Wisconsin's media landscape is just shamefully bad and biased towards teabaggin' lies.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6621691715090523319.post-52462127108463455112016-08-11T20:24:21.212-05:002016-08-11T20:24:21.212-05:00Somehow, I doubt scotty will talk about this at th...Somehow, I doubt scotty will talk about this at the trumpapalooza tonight in Milwaukee with fellow koch puppet Mike Pence. What a flip-flopper. From #neverTrump to leading a rally.<br /><br />Media reports are a "few hundred" -- does anyone know how many the Chrystal Ballroom at Hilton Downtown holds? I think the tickets were free and I did stop by -- the closed the doors at approximately 7 pm. I think the only people that were turned away were folks that arrived after the closed the ballroom doors to start the event.<br /><br />I know it wasn't packed -- but it would be helpful if our media would report how full the room was instead of a vague "few hundred" people. <br /><br />On second thought, it was Milwaukee Journal Sentinel that reported it that way at 7:45 or so -- they are Walker's BBF and I imagine they will fall in line with the GOP nominee & VP.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
