I came here as a partnership with the office of student diversity and inclusion at the medical…read morecollege of Wisconsin. We had a listening party at the radio station and we had the opportunity to vote on songs that they would play on the radio. It was a wonderful time, and the event was catered. The staff was extremely nice and gave us a tour of the facilities. the radio station just changed their logo and it looks really nice and it's something that's fresh and simplistic.

There are two main public radio stations in the Milwaukee area: WUWM (Milwaukee Public Radio) and…read moreWHAD (Wisconsin Public Radio). WHAD seems to have a much larger variety of Wisconsin-centric programming, but I prefer WUWM's lineup. I'm addicted to it, really. The majority of their programming is made up of the nationally-syndicated shows (All Things Considered, etc), but the locally-produced programs like Lake Effect are excellent. Perhaps I'm choosing not to notice a slant, but it seems like it's a rare feat for a talk radio station to be anything other than a constant stream of opinions. Consider this the panacea for Mark Belling-/Sly Sylvester-induced nausea, depending on your political stance. Can a positive Yelp review be a substitute for a monetary donation to WUWM? I hope so. Then maybe I won't feel so guilty when they do fund drives.....

Every day religiously I listen to this station. They are my morning news source and dammit I need…read moreit! I can't imagine riding to work without it! It's almost as if it were as vital as the air I breathe, well wait maybe not that needed but eesh a day without it I feel a bit lost! It's definetly a part of the morning routine. Must make coffee, must listen to Morning Edition and the BBC Network. These things go hand in hand. It's a tradition of listening handed down to me by my pops.I even have my wife taking part in it. The weekends it's Car Talk even the reruns then Wait Wait Don't Tell Me. I love it all. To me it is radio at it's finest. The heightening of the sense of mental visualization through listening. It will always beat watching TV hands down.

#3 - WISN 12, ABC…read more The only con I have for this station is it's choppy signal. I can't get it most of the time. Anyway, it's still a fantastic station. It has a great news team, sublime sports, accurate weather, and it's not been infected by the disease that I call "Disnebola"! Disnebola is Disney's stupidity. THANK GOD THERE IS NONE HERE.

'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.
