Fox reporter shouted down in Wisconsin

But the clever Fox anchor had an unassailable response to the crowd's chants of "Fox Lies:" "Well I tell ya, Jeff, those folks protesting Fox, I wonder if they would prefer a state-run television network providing all the coverage." (As opposed to what, tool? A robber-baron shill network widely known as GOP-TV?)



This video came via TPM, which remembers that the Democrats fixed a much larger budget shortfall in Wisconsin without going after labor.

We know that Wisconsin's Republican Gov. Scott Walker is framing his bid to roll back public sector worker rights as a necessary measure of fiscal austerity. And we know that's basically bogus. But how bogus? And how accurate are the dire warnings of fiscal crisis? And how standard are the tools Walker's using to address it?
     ...The previous governor, Democrat Jim Doyle, passed a budget that left the state poised for a surplus this year. When Walker took office in January he chipped away at that surplus with three conservative tax expenditure bills, but not severely enough to trigger a budget repair bill. The current, small shortfall was "manufactured by Governor Walker's own insistence on making the deficit worse with the bills he passed in January," Kreitlow said. But Walker cited that shortfall to introduce a "budget repair bill" anyhow — a fully elective move that includes his plan to end collective bargaining rights for state employees.
