The Pack Is Really Not Back – Part 2
Thursday night’s loss to Tennessee got us to thinking about… anything else: deer hunting, high school football playoffs, even what method Wisconsin should use to choose our state Supreme Court justices. Mark Jacob helps review this week in media coverage and the potential demise of Twitter. Dan Schumacher updated the Wisconsin schools taking part in NCAA Division 3 football playoffs.
Monday
- John Callabrese on Dunn County health care referendum that asked how voters feel about the idea of a national non-profit health insurance plan for Americans.
- Dr. Kristin Lyerly on the way Wisconsin Republicans want to make government even more invasive when victims of rape and incest are impregnated by their attackers.
Can We Be Normal Now? – Part 2
Trumpers are no longer dominant. Democrats no longer control a large chunk of the congressional calendar. Does this mixed bag of election results mean things can get back to whatever passes for “normal” in American politics? We ask Courier Newsroom political director Carolyn Fiddler and former Chicago Tribune editor Mark Jacob. Also, Sen. Tammy Baldwin on the predatory loan practices of private, for-profit colleges. And UW-Eau Claire athletic director Dan Schumacher previews the weekend in sports.
Next Week:
- “Best Of” episodes Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday as part of Pat’s post-election recovery period.
