Detroit schools and the $200 million

Joe Kline writes the story of the $200 million offer by Bob Thompson to Detroit schools that was, in the end, withdrawn because the teacher union opposed it. It is an amazing story that even Kline and Time magazine can’t get wrong. I can’t believe that this hasn’t caused more of a fuss. (Thanks to Powerline)

I am equally outraged that the exact organization which supposedly seeks to promote and protect education is actually discouraging it. What a pity that the unions are picking politics over quality education.
