Another bomb goes off in Wisconsin.

Hello readers from across Wisconsin and around the world, thank you for taking the time to read my thoughts and experiences on these pages. Trying to do a little unwinding this Sunday after a very long and exciting week here in Madison, WI. All day on Friday I had been frantically racing around and preparing for my campaign event kick-off, all the while I was dreading the weekly 'Friday News Bomb'

The Friday News Bomb has been a regular event in Wisconsin for the last thirteen months. Typically mainstream media reports here in Madison, like everywhere else, cover 'news' Monday through Wednesday from 8 am until 6 pm. That is the news cycle that almost all networks and affiliates adhere to. Anything that happens from Wednesday evening until Monday morning will usually not be covered, unless sometimes it is a fairly pertinent story that links to others, in which case that story will be merged with another story the next week during the regular cycle.

There are generally two exceptions to this basic rule. Exception one is a huge breaking news event outside of the three day cycle. The second exception is the 'human interest' story that occurs outside of the cycle. The human interest story for instance the 'firefighters rescuing a kitten from a tree story' will always be covered. The light and fluffy weekend news casts are full of such stories here as most Americans are aware.

7. OK.... I was so tired the other night that I'm just now getting back....

Over a week ago, while taking the dog out, around 1:00 A.M. I heard a loud boom... It shook my home.... So I thought that's what you were getting at......

3. One sentence with stuff and more fluff:

Here is the meat of it:

snip>:
You cant believe how happy I was when the story broke and it was detailing the beginning investigation into GOTea Senators Robin Vos and VanWaangard being investigated for a ALEC sponsored 'pay to play' scandal.

And some more happy dancing after that.
This is probably all that will get posted till subpoena's get handed out but,it is still good news if extremely vague.

4. Matthew was blogging about how important legal revelations are kept "hushed" and reported on Fri.

evenings. So he was waiting for last Fri. evening's "bomb" to break and the investigation of two seemingly untouched Repukes surfaced.



"You cant believe how happy I was when the story broke and it was detailing the beginning investigation into GOTea Senators Robin Vos and VanWaangard being investigated for a ALEC sponsored 'pay to play' scandal. You have to just love this, we are recalling senators and winning that battle, and the right wing senators we couldn't go after are now under investigation...WOO HOO!!!!

GOTea has them caught between a rock and a hard place. Between the people of Wisconsin outraged and what they have done to our glorious state, and the criminal probe of they re own illegal and immoral activities."

5. It may have been a bomb on Friday

but it's Monday and now I can't find any other news on this story.

WTF?

Tried Robin Vos + Van Wanggaard + various combinations of "investigate"
and "john doe" and "ongoing" and next to nothing came up.

6. That is the point the blogger is talking about...

The important, would be front page story is released during the most inconspicuous, unfavorable time and never reported on later.

8. But the original report?

When I searched the only things that came up were the link in the post and
this D.U. thread.

That's it.
