Diane Ravitch revealst "that Washington state, supporters of public schools--Like the League of Women Voters--have filed a lawsuit to stop the legislature from funding charter schools, which the state's highest court declared are NOT public schools! Yet, somehow, across the state, major newspapers posted editorials opposing any effort to block charters, some using the exact same language. Do you find that odd? Parent activist Dora Taylor does. Read her account, and remember -- that the media in this nations is owned by the EDUCATIONAL INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX and they feed our people the Orwellian lies about failing schools that they sell as 'reform' and which have 'deformed' the INSTITUTION of Public education,because democracy depends on shared knowledge, and "It's part of the way of controlling and dumbing down the population, and that's important."
