Scott Walker's proposed budget cuts, as well as other similar protests around the country. If you've followed the mainstream press, you've seen lots of civil protests, lots of interviews with reasonable teachers, pictures of signs about the need for quality education.

By Theunis Bates - AOL NewsLONDON -- A wily fox cub has been found enjoying the high life at the top of Britain's tallest skyscraper more than 900 feet above the city's streets. The bushy-tailed trespasser spent two weeks scampering around London's Shard tower, which is still under construction, and made his home on the 72nd floor.

Dan Kitwood, Getty Images Pest control workers were called in to remove a fox that made ...
The Dugout: Los Angeles Dodgers Spring Training 2011
By Brandon Stroud - AOL NewsRemember when the defining image of the Dodgers was of Kirk Gibson, struggling against his own body, doing the unthinkable and hitting a home run in the World Series against one of baseball's best pitchers?

Welp, now the defining image of the Dodgers is of two old rich white people getting a divorce. Congratulations, McCourts, when the Dodgers go up for auction I'm sure we can get you a spot on the Real Housewives of Local ...
Report: Bud Selig Vetoes Proposed $200M FOX Loan to Frank McCourt, Dodgers

McCourt already has received an ...

By Mary Phillips-Sandy - AOL NewsRep. Ron Paul of Texas won the Conservative Political Action Conference, or CPAC, 2011 straw poll with 30 percent of the vote, besting runner-up Mitt Romney by 7 percentage points. The annual straw poll is considered a bellwether of conservative support in advance of the presidential primary season, though many political analysts say it's a popularity contest, not a meaningful statistic. Paul was also the winner in 2010. Now attention has shifted to Fox News' coverage of the event. Some are accusing the network of inserting footage from CPAC 2010 -- when disappointed Romney supporters booed ...

Fox Rejects Super Bowl Ad Featuring Bible Verse John 3:16
By David Gibson - Politics DailySuper Bowl ad controversies have become nearly as interesting as the commercials that get on the air, maybe more so, and that's surely the case with the latest spot rejected by Fox Sports: A 30-second ad aimed at getting viewers to check out the familiar gospel verse, John 3:16. So far this year, Fox has nixed commercials over issues of bad taste and inappropriate content -- which is a pretty high bar, given the popularity of frat boy humor and double entendres in Super Bowl ads, or the single-entendre spots that focus the attention so intently on sexy women that viewers don't actually know ...
