Right after the 1994 New York governor election, my high school English teacher assigned us to write a letter to the Pataki administration opposing his proposed tax cut.
Our teacher fed us the standard teachers union line, which was that a tax cut would reduce state education spending and thus harm our schools and shift a greater burden onto local taxpayers. We were supposed to put this in our own words as concerned children and plead with Albany to keep our parents’ taxes high.I raised my hand and said that, actually, I think greater local control of education is good — especially for those who didn’t trust former Gov.
Substack writer Chris Bray aptly sums up the predictable Washington Post piece, which is part of a genre: Yes, it’s an “experts say” and “conservatives pounce” story, which means it is simply just a liberal opinion piece disguised as a news story. That’s not shocking. What’s shocking is how banal the central opinion is in this thinly veiled opinion piece. Basically, the opinion is that conservative politicians are using the story as a way to make their point that crime and disorder are on the rise.
There was no “Liberals seize on Jordan Neely’s Death” story in the Washington Post. There was instead an “After NY subway chokehold death, protesters call for an arrest.”
