The Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel – which seems to have done a fair job of covering the Wisconsin Fleebaggers – has busted an SEIU hack bragging that the Milwaukee media was complicit with the union <\/a>in trying to smear then-candidate and now-governor Scott Walker.<\/p>\n

Using his cell phone, a Walker campaign staffer recorded a 15-minute talk in which Morgan laid out what he said were his union’s plans to tie the problems at the O’Donnell Park garage and the Milwaukee County Mental Health Complex to the Republican nominee.<\/p>\n

The Walker aide, Michael Brickman, didn’t disclose who he was during the one-on-one chat. He gave a false name and occupation at the end of the conversation… The union staffer bragged about his ability to garner news coverage of his anti-Walker events from local TV stations, which he called “willing partners” in his endeavors. He also disclosed that he secretly runs an anti-Walker blog at www.scottwalkertruthsquad.org, which prominently features Weishan and SEIU’s criticisms of the county exec.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

kicking Scott Walker\u2019s ass for two months now. We\u2019ve been on TV; we\u2019ve done all kinds of stuff.<\/p>\n

1: You guys did TV?<\/p>\n

2: No, We just get Channel 4 to come down with their news cameras and just a \u2026. do news.<\/p>\n

2: Pretty good. You\u2019ve seen that stuff?<\/p>\n

2: Yeah, they\u2019ve been really willing partners in it. They come in with the TV cameras and (channels) 58,<\/p>\n

12 come, and 6 doesn\u2019t always. But yeah, they\u2019ve been really helpful. They think it\u2019s fun.<\/p>\n

2: Sometimes. It\u2019s not perfect, but yeah, they get our message across.<\/p>\n

This, if it pans out, should be placed alongside “JournoList<\/a>” as prime evidence in the indictment of the mainstream media on charges of liberal bias from the top down.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
