LA Times Bashes Teachers, and their Union:
The lead article's headline, in the print edition, reads:


Seniority Over Quality


as if this was any kind of valid juxtaposition;

the online edition differs somewhat, but the gist is ths same:

When layoffs come to L.A. schools, performance doesn't count

After the budget ax fell, hundreds of the district's most promising new instructors were laid off. Campuses in poorer areas — such as Liechty Middle School in the Westlake neighborhood — were disproportionately hurt.

1. Does Bill Gates own the LA Times?
They have gone over the edge on the teacher bashing bandwagon.

2. Yeah, that was disgusting ignorant bullshit.
I was wondering if they had a management change it was so bad.
