LANDMARK
CBS News ran a feature on education tonight that finally broke out of the standard set of lies.
They stated ... for the first time ever on American mainstream media ... that MONEY DOES NOT IMPROVE EDUCATION.
This has been blazingly obvious from all available facts for 30 years. In fact the correlation is almost perfectly inverse: with only two exceptions, the states that spend more get worse results and the states that spend less get better results.
CBS also stated clearly that tenure and unions interfere with improving education. This fact is less absolute; it's only in the biggest cities, especially New York, that the unions are truly abusive and intractable. But it's still an important fact, and it's never been mentioned before in MSM reporting. ¶ 6:07 PM
