Comments on: Do reporters hate schools? A PR support group says maybe http://gothamschools.org/2009/02/17/do-reporters-hate-schools-a-pr-support-group-says-maybe/ Fri, 10 Feb 2012 05:27:00 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Norm http://gothamschools.org/2009/02/17/do-reporters-hate-schools-a-pr-support-group-says-maybe/comment-page-1/#comment-38273 Norm Wed, 18 Feb 2009 04:29:52 +0000 http://gothamschools.org/?p=9628#comment-38273 "This kind of mirrors Chancellor Joel Klein’s perspective on press coverage of his reforms, as described recently by Richard Colvin: The reporters heard mainly from sources who weren’t Klein. As a result, they wrote very negative — and, according to Klein, inaccurate — stories." Poor crybaby Joel. Always ready to blame anyone and everybody for the disasters in NYC schools. Or call them bumps in the road. More like the Himalayas. Exactly what are these sources reporters are hearing from and why aren't they reflected in the main stream press? Have you seen the number of working classroom teacher blogs and the horror stories of total mismanagement under Joel Klein they reflect? I see few of these points of views reflected in the mainstream press. As for Richard Colvin- give me a break. “This kind of mirrors Chancellor Joel Klein’s perspective on press coverage of his reforms, as described recently by Richard Colvin: The reporters heard mainly from sources who weren’t Klein.
