We hear you, Wisconsin. When our corporate-owned media ignores
your struggle, we still hear you. When CNN distorts the truth about Governor
Scott Walker's union-busting motives, we hear you. When Fox "News" maligns the
pro-labor demonstrators as vandals and terrorists and paints Walker as a patron
state of fiscal responsibility, we still hear you.
When all the corporate outlets ignored the truth revealed in the tape presented by a gonzo journalist who proved that Scott Walker was deep under the bed covers with David Koch, we hear you still.
And today, when Walker and the anti-middle-class Wisconsin state Republicans thump their chests, light their cigars, and bask in the glory of their sneaky midnight vote that ended 50 years of collective bargaining . . . we hear you even louder.
And we are with you in your struggle to retain the remaining shreds of your hard-won right to organize as the middle class is pushed to extinction. There is barely a mention of the aftermath of the Wisconsin legislature's dirty tricks in the mainstream media today, which only proves the televised branch of the so-called Fourth Estate has sold its soul to its corporate masters. The TV cameras may be packed away, and the "reporters" are racing off to cover Charlie and Lindsay, but we are watching, still.
We will not forget. We will keep the flame of freedom lit.
Wisconsin, you are not alone.
