Gov. Scott Walker of Wisconsin was adamant that his trip to Israel this week be a “listening tour” that focused exclusively on Israel, not about his presidential-campaign-in-waiting.

“We wanted to make it an educational focus, not just a media trip,” he told reporters before he left. That meant no reporters, no video cameras, no photographers, nada. Just Mr. Walker, his team and members of the Republican Jewish Coalition, a pro-Israeli group heavily financed by the casino billionaire Sheldon G. Adelson.

That doesn’t mean they want the news media at home to be left in the dark, however.

Mr. Walker has been sharing photographs and updates from his Twitter account. And Matt Brooks, the coalition’s executive director, has been posting pictures of Mr. Walker’s tour on Twitter as well.

Local network outlets in Wisconsin, including ABC, and The Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel have all asked Mr. Brooks to use the photos as they try to cover Mr. Walker’s trip from afar. And every request has been granted so far.
