The NY Times campaign to slam Walker
By: trollslayer Date: June 20, 2014, 8:04 pm
---------------------------------------------------------
The article in the link posted below magnifies the lack of any
journalistic integrity by The Times. The headline screams
"Wisconsin Governor at Center of a Vast Fund-Raising Case", it
fails to list any facts, doesn't mention that this has been
going on for over two years, has been dismissed by two different
judges at least twice and also fails to mention that those the
probe has focused on have filed cases against the prosecutors in
this case for constitutional violations. The best the Times can
do in it's smear campaign are many statements that start off,
"prosecutors assert", " Allegations by five DA's", "prosecutors
say", "prosecutors contend", you know, you get the idea.

To borrow a couple of lines from our current administration,
there is no there, there. Nothing but a phony scandal, and just
think, not one email was lost, not one hard drive crashed during
this investigation.

The lie is officially exposed. I would say The Times is part of
a "criminal scheme" to sway elections. Some OTOH just call this
journalism.
[quote]Claims that there is evidence that Wisconsin Gov. Scott
Walker was part of a “criminal scheme” to sway special elections
in 2011 and 2012 are “wrong,” according to an attorney for a
special prosecutor looking into the case.
Last week, a judge released documents that showed that the
special prosecutor, Francis Schmitz, had named Walker and
several others as part of a plot to coordinate campaign
activities ahead of the special elections.
But those documents were never meant to be released to the
public and they were taken out of context, said Randall Crocker,
a personal attorney for Schmitz, according to the Wisconsin
State Journal.
Schmitz is being accused of prosecutorial misconduct by a
conservative group involved in the case, which is called a John
Doe investigation[/quote]

will I believe? ::)

I don't know if you actually clicked on the link or not, but I
covered all my bases on this one. The Daily Caller link has a
link embedded in it to the Wisconsin State Journal on this
story. Even F wouldn't be able to complain about that!

"However, that doesn’t mean Walker has been exonerated in the
eyes of prosecutors, and he could continue to be a subject of
the investigation if it is allowed to continue, legal experts
said Thursday."
Even the Journal is saying Walker isn't in the clear yet.

Linda, the Journal is just another part of the liberal media.
Let me break your statement down for you.
[quote]However, that doesn’t mean Walker has been exonerated in
the eyes of prosecutors, [/quote]
These are the same prosecutors under investigation for
prosecutorial misconduct and other violations of people's
rights. ??? :-[ :-X
[quote]and he could continue to be a subject of the
investigation if it is allowed to continue, [/quote]
Lets not forget, this case has been thrown out of court twice,
by two different judges. Do you think it should be allowed to
continue? More spin by the liberal media. :-\ :) >:(
Addendum. Happy faces totally unrelated to the story or my
opinion. Lo insisted on adding them!
