2. Are you asking seriously?
I hope not.

3. That's what I was thinking.
They kind of have their hands full.

6. Why would they?
Their focus is on the Arab world. They cover other international new, but AFAIK only the "big stuff". On a planetary scale, what happens in Wisconsin definitely does not qualify as "big". Would you expect US news to cover regional labor conflicts in say Russia? Especially when MAJOR events happening locally?

4. Maybe, if they consider it a relevant story.
Considering that AJ English has few outlets here in the USA because our media has them for all intents and purposes censored, I doubt that it's a story of international interest for them.
