I love public television and public radio. Super nerd alert (robot voice) alert. alert. (robot…read morearms) And MPTV is MKE is pretty dang A-OK. Better than A-OK, in fact... I'm a fan, even! Here's why: -NOVA and Frontline are totally boss, period -some people like John McGivern's show -they promote learning and critical thinking and doing and being in a really great way -the theme song/commercial for the station itself makes me feel warm and safe and happy -sometimes you might want to learn about knives in the Test Kitchen or whatever -Lidia Bastianich can cook up some mean Italian eats -Bob Ross at odd times -I don't care about quilting or woodworking but maybe someday I will -kids should watch their kids' programming instead of the Disney Channel or MTV or whatever mind-rotting shit kids watch these days (waves cane)

've reached the point where I no longer trust WISN-TV to deliver politically balanced coverage…read more The issue isn't that they never include opposing viewpoints--it's how those viewpoints are handled. Time and again, their reporting appears to follow a pattern: one side of an issue is framed as reasonable and authoritative, while the other is reduced to brief soundbites, weaker scrutiny, or less context. Even when anchors like Shawn Oswald present stories in a calm, professional tone, the imbalance shows up in the story selection, framing, and follow-up questions. Those editorial choices matter more than delivery--and that's where the bias becomes noticeable. What's especially frustrating is that this isn't about one story--it feels consistent. Whether it's state policy debates, public health decisions, or local government coverage, the pattern repeats often enough that it's hard to ignore. Local news should be the most trustworthy level of journalism. Instead, WISN increasingly feels like it's shaping narratives rather than simply reporting facts. If WISN wants to maintain credibility across the community, it needs to do more than include "both sides" on paper. It needs to: Apply equal skepticism to all viewpoints Give competing perspectives comparable depth and context Avoid subtle framing that nudges viewers toward a conclusion Until that happens, viewers are right to question whether they're getting the full story.

This years night market was bigger than I have ever seen it before! So many food trucks, a variety…read moreof vendors, and lots of people to enjoy it! Only once a month, (June, July, August, and September), its a fun stop for your Milwaukee Summer bucket list. Its so great to see all the different vendors and food each year. This last market had a karaoke stand, various shops selling Milwaukee art, soap, and other handmade goods. Tons of food truck to chose from, we tried the tots (one of our favorites) and the brisket mac and cheese. Yum! Whenever I am able to, I make sure to stop by for a bit. It's an easy stop after work! Great music, good food, fun activities, and people watching too!

Heart of Downtown packed on a Wednesday night every time it's hosted. Great selection of vendors…read more Lines were pretty long for some, I wouldn't wait in. Did score some local honey, a mini sample pack of the cutest little bears. I really was just passing through, didn't want to make any impulse purchases since there was a lot of great stuff. It was a melting pot, people of all ages and backgrounds. Feels like there's more and more vendors each year.

Looking for restaurant- grade gear that stands the test of time? This is it. If you cook ( and who…read moredoesn't eat?) pick things that are solid and last forever. Tossing out yet another thing that is toxic, burned to smithereens, or whose handle has fallen off, gets tiring. Buy for life

Wow - this place is a gem! Boelter is similar to Fein Brothers in that it's a restaurant supply…read morestore that welcomes the public. The upside to Boelter is Saturday hours, parking lot and a modern showroom. First - they have EVERYTHING. I mean it - pots, pans, utensils, weird serving dishes, prep stuff, bathrobes, coffee pots, giant potato mashers, chef shoes, cleaning supplies, huge deep fryers and Brewers Tupperware. Have you ever wished for one of those little silver dishes that restaurants put butter pats in? Look no further - it's yours for a mere $2. Second - staff is kind and helpful. They'll explain how it works to newbies and then let you go on your own personal voyage of discovery. Third - prices. They are good. A Wusthof chefs knife for $30? A sleeve of 100 jello shot cups for $1.29? Brewers Tupperware set of $15? All present and accounted for. They're a great source for catering/big party supplies too. They even sell paper chef hats (the tall, cylindrical ones) by the case - who doesn't need that? Fourth - Cooking classes. The fine people at Sur la Table have the balls to charge $70 per PERSON for a class. Boelter is $35 which includes a $25 credit to the store = $10 class. Most are taught by Michael Feker so that's going to be....entertaining. In conclusion, there's no better place to go when you need a turnip twaddler or whatnot for some obscure recipe. They'll have it and they'll have it at a fair price.
