Wausau Morning Report: Friday, June 20

Chad Holmes and Ian Welsh discuss the big news of the last week including the discussion led by the Wausau Pilot and Review and endorsed by Wausau Mayor Doug Diny to move to a City Manager form of government. We think that there should be some deep thought and discussion about some of the negatives of that plan.
