Wisconsin Hometown Stories: Janesville

[@jurgenbaumgart9415]

Great city. Did my Senior year at Craig, as an exchange student from Sweden back in 1982-83. Been back a few times and still love Janesville.

Thank you for this video. I moved to Janesville from Bosnia and Herzegovina after marrying my husband (a Janesville native) in 2003. Each year I love this city more and more.

For those who don't know, the Parker Pen Company was founded in Janesville, Wisconsin by George Safford Parker. EDIT: I wrote this comment before watching the entire video.

[@mikerice3349]

It would be nice if your series would tell the stories of the community without distorting it with your pathetic leftist political bias.

You're asking a lot from public television

You can't handle the truth Mike

@@x85gilreath "Mike" is spoon fed hate and ignorance (by design) from FAUX 'news', therefore, he is information challenged. He votes against his own interests so he can "stick it to the libs." not realizing that he is being used to help the wealthy get wealthier and large corporations to get larger while people like him pay the cost.

You are sooooo right. We really need to go back to when women couldn't vote. Hell, let's bring back slavery too! Wouldn't that be GREAT!?!?!?!?!? 🤨

if it's not your thing, don't watch - I personally like these and don't watch them for the political overtone, just the historical part
