Supervisor Taylor - You and Mayor John Nelson continue to call Franklin Community News (https://www.FCNewsWI.com) "Fake News". However when challenged time an time again neither of you can specifically identify what has been reported that is "False" and "Fake". All reporting by this "community journalist" has been based on open records, publicly available records, and transcripts. Here is your opportunity....as your tactics do not scare or threaten me as Im confident in the information that has been reported and the origination of the content. PLEASE feel free to identify just one piece of NEWS that is not accurate that has been reported by FCN. Im sure you will respond with an emoji and not use your words......I am waiting and so are your constituents in Franklin and Oak Creek who finally have their eyes open about who you and John Nelson really are. Corruption....nah. You must believe you have a HUGE Ego...trying to compare yourself to Donald Trump. I think you need to get over yourself. In the words of Lloyd Bentsen....You sir are no Donald Trump.

WAS FRANKLIN MAYOR JOHN NELSON DISRESPECTED BY THE SCHOOL DISTRICT?

Kinda looks like it.

At this morning's groundbreaking ceremony at the north end of Franklin High School there was Nelson, left to stand behind all the others. No shovel. No hard hat. Both are customary at a groundbreaking.

I've been to a few such ceremonies. Actually a lot more than a few. Have never seen one where one of the VIPs is pictured without a shovel or hard hat. You'd think that after approval of a $145-million school referendum the district would have enough props for the mayor.
