One overlooked aspect of the ruckus in Wisconsin is that Governor Scott Walker’s budget proposal allows him to sell off the state’s power plants with no bids. And right as the pro-worker protests picked up steam, reporters noticed Koch Industries opening an office in downtown Madison, WI. Coincidence? Maybe. But maybe not — there’s already a wave of speculation brewing that Scott Walker is looking to sell off his power plants to the GOP’s most notable corporate benefactors.

Currently, sports is one of the main things that’s tough to stay connected to if you choose not to subscribe to traditional linear pay-TV service like cable or satellite, so it’s no surprise there was much ado over Gautam Anand, Google Director of Content Partnerships for Asia Pacific, saying the company is negotiating to broadcast NHL and NBA games on YouTube . However, the key words in Bloomberg’s report of the statement are “for Asia Pacific,” and while the NHL flat out denied any discussions, the NBA merely noted it was “pleased that YouTube recognizes the value of live sports.” YouTube already airs games from the Indian Cricket Premier League, and PaidContent’s Staci Kramer has learned talks centered around the possibility of airing NBA games — but only in Asia.
