I am so pissed at my local news channel!
The channel that could barely utter a bad word about the Bush administration before the election is now running a big expose on NCLB. Why it isn't working , why we are being fooled, what the real deal is with it, why teachers hate it. While I appreciate the story, I am so irritated that it is happening now! My brother in law (a very nice, but not too bright guy) actually voted for Bush b/c he thought teachers needed more accountability. AHHHH!

Is anyone seeing this happen elsewhere?

1. I no longer watch news
but I suspect they are trying to show "balance" and ge4t back viewers

They lost me completely, I find my news on the net now
