Charging with failure to report

Nothing in today's papers about the former Wisconsin GOP Assembly Speaker sentenced to 15 months in state prison, notes Cal Skinner in his McHenry County blog.  Nor anything about Kentucky's GOP governor's indictment for patronage hiring abuses.  "I would have thought the parallels with Blagojevich were too stark to ignore," he tells me, recalling comments by his onetime legislative assistant Pete Castillo about the editorial power to withhold (ignore) news.
