Fox6 Lying By Omission?

There is controversy over the Milwaukee Public Museum's planned move to a new facility.  Among other things, the "Streets of Old Milwaukee" exhibit will disappear, and that's not the only disappearing item.

There are also serious questions about the Museum's "cost/benefit" numbers.  "Misleading" is the most kind way to put it.

So when Fox6 interviewed a lady whose grandpa curated the "European Streets" exhibit, what did Fox6 do?

....Fox 6 edited out all questions about the Milwaukee Public Museum’s finances, multi-million dollar planned diversity updates and shifting numbers in a story on the new $240 million museum project, leaving them on the cutting room floor, and refusing to let the public know the concerns exist, Wisconsin Right Now has learned....

It's not what the media DOES publish; it's what they WON'T let you know.

What questions are being asked?  Go here to find out.

As to why Fox6 pulled this stunt?  Well, the Museum's mouthpiece used to work at Fox6.

Just coincidence, of course.
