There’s strong evidence that rolling back the clock an hour in November is responsible for part of the huge increase in deer collisions Wisconsin sees this time of year. Here’s my story. Some charts that didn’t make the final cut are below. jsonline.com/story/news/traf…

When @MilwaukeePolice sent us an email on a man they considered critically missing, we had questions, considering there was no context provided on the case and the only image police gave us was a mugshot. Here's what we learned in our reporting. #transparency @WISN12News 🧵
Asking follow up questions to a government agency in an effort to seek clarification, context and accuracy is NOT “gotcha journalism” . It just journalism and reporting. It’s a responsibility I and my colleagues take seriously.

The Wisconsin Supreme Court, embroiled in controversy since majority control flipped from conservative to liberal, is advertising for a new public information officer after Tom Sheehan retired last week. The job description says it offers a "challenging work environment."

Why do we advocate for #CamerasInTheCourts? Consider the case of former president Donald Trump's indictment. This case, which alleges the former president and current candidate obstructued justice and violated the Espionage Act, is a matter of public interest.

Today is Cinco de Mayo! But believe it or not, that isn’t really a big deal to many outside of the United States or the city of Puebla in Mexico. I love getting a chance to talk about my culture and teach my friends on @CBS58 how to celebrate it authentically!

NO: Press Conference YES: News Conference NOTE: If a politician doesn't take questions, it's NOT a news conference. It's a statement. Make clear to the viewers they refused to answer questions about what they just spoke about. Viewers can decide if they're OK with that.

It is with a very heavy heart that we share this devastating news. Lesley Van Ness, who we have been so fortunate to have as part of our Gray family, passed away earlier this week. Please keep Lesley's family in your thoughts during this difficult time. wgem.com/2023/04/13/remember…

This is 100% the reason so much crime news permeates our newscasts. 1. Add shows 2. Must fill shows 3. Need content 4. Crime stories turn fast Unfortunate by-products: 1. Viewers believe violent crime is rampant (it’s not) 2. Far more valuable stories ignored
Replying to @WriteLikeUTalk
As a producer, I hate filling time. But it's hard to have new information when there's newscasts at 4-5, 5-5:30, 6-7. Local news does not have the funding or resources to compete with 24/7 news. It shouldn't try.

Sen. Tammy Baldwin and now Rep. Derrick Van Orden are joining a long tradition of Wisconsin politicians denouncing dairy substitutes. In 1886 Robert La Follette compared oleomargarine to a “plague.”
