However, the days of this rag newspaper are gone. Their circulation is in the dumps so no one is really reading this crap anyway. Further, my advertising contacts tell me the paper had to give ads away for basically nothing as this paper reaches no one. To all the editors, writers and others at the daily news I say so long charlie, your bull shit can only last so long.

Some poor crew of teachers have been charged with attempting to teach this motley crew. <br />Imagine that a teacher's career is in the hands of this lot. <br />I am surprised someone has not blamed teachers for the beating. SHHHH.... before I give them the idea. <br />http://www.nydailynews.com/new-york/nyc-crime/teen-suspect-mcdonald-beating-turns-article-1.2149211Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1628172601886929098.post-81264957755428348812015-03-15T12:08:50.108-04:002015-03-15T12:08:50.108-04:00Andrew Cuomo, Chris Christie, Scott Walker, Rahm E...Andrew Cuomo, Chris Christie, Scott Walker, Rahm Emanuel,<br /><br />Come down to my school to observe the daily fights featuring girls twirling each other around by their hair extensions. You will also have the opportunity to hear nonstop cursing and verbal abuse. You will be able to use your political acumen to bring the class to order and teach a lesson in the subject of your choice.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1628172601886929098.post-68975583896256973832015-03-15T10:31:07.870-04:002015-03-15T10:31:07.870-04:00A.

"570 hedge fund managers shelled out more than $40 million in political contributions", yet, "Like Cuomo,several of the deep-pocketed donors are longtime supporters of charter school". 570 = Several? Hah!<br /><br />B. Half of the article is one parent complaining about her child's experience. I'd like to hear what the teacher had to say about the situation of "given no homework" and her daughter "not learning anything". Or, are journalists now only paid to cover one side of an issue.<br /><br />C. Expect more pro-charter propaganda till the Daily News goes out of business.<br /><br />D. The tabloidesque, pro 1%, and anti-middle/working class stance on stories are main reasons why newspapers fold, nowadays. <br /><br />E. Ben Chapman, the owners of the Daily News salute you, and will provide any references you may need at your next job.
