11. Too bad it is not being covered in Wisconsin
At this moment you have to squint to see any mention of the protests on the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel Home Page. Sports headlines dominate, while the most prominent headline dealing with the labor issues is "Legislative committee expected to begin budget bill consideration shortly". Honestly, potentially historic demonstrations are taking place in their own state and Wisconsin's largest newspaper chooses to ignore the protests and focus only on the legislators. If you search the site for "Tea Party" you get a hundred articles, but virtually none for the union protesters. This is what happens when large corporations control our media.
