The readers of The Progressive were clearly pushing it. You have 2 people CALLING it a suicide and that's enough for them. No evidence, just take the accusation and let fly.

...two members of the school district contacted The Progressive about her death, calling it a suicide and saying it was connected, at least in part, to the policies that Walker has proposed.

some idiot made up this story.

That seems to be true of most of the articles The Progressive has written about the Wisconsin story:

* Wisconsin Teacher in Apparent Suicide, “Distraught” Over Walker’s Cuts
* With Gov. Walker's 'Tools,' Wisconsin Begins Dismantling Public Education
* The Badger Rebellion Comes to DC
* The Costly Brain Drain in Wisconsin
* Nader Urges Biden to Go to Wisconsin to Support Workers
* Historic Rally in Madison As 'Fab Fourteen' Come Home
* Walker Wins Battle, But Will Lose War
* Walker Signs Union-Busting Bill While Protesters Chant Shame
* “Rule-Breaking Republicans Lock the Doors and Ram Union Busting Bill Through Assembly”
* Fighting Back the Day After in Wis
* Citizens Jam Capitol After WI Republicans' Sudden Vote to Pass Union- Busting Measure
* Boycotting Walker’s Corporate Funders
* Scott Walker Believes He’s Following Orders from the Lord
* Bullets, Snakes, and other Security Red Herrings As Wisconsin Republicans Scramble

A person would rather die than pay more inn premiums? Hard to believe anybody had chutzpah to publish that one! ;^)

How about it, get a grip. What would the teachers do if the state threatened to take away their 3 month summer vacations? Go out Jim Jones style, en masse?
