The Media - The New York Times
So the Democrat governor of New York has the same issues, union obstacles, and solutions that the Republican governor of Wisconsin has.

Ron Radosh writes about it at PajamasMedia.com:
"A Dissection of a mixed-up Editorial"
"After all, the editors write, 'unlike Gov. Scott Walker of Wisconsin, Governor Cuomo is not trying to break the unions.' We have their assurance for this, and because he is not going after collective bargaining, I’m sure the AFL-CIO chieftains in New York State will immediately see the wisdom of Cuomo’s plans and the New York Times editorial endorsement, and will not accuse Cuomo — as they did Gov. Paterson — of being a union-busting monster. I mean all Cuomo wants is a 'salary freeze and a reduction of benefits.' How could any union disagree with that? So the editors warn: 'The unions need to negotiate seriously.'"
