Chalkbeat “Roundtable” discussion on Eliz. Green controversial piece in which she called Success charters a model educational system. See what I just tweeted about it below.The incredible bias of this piece in responding to critiques that the original piece was too biased makes me think that Chalkbeat editors must be trapped in a bubble w/o any awareness of how isolated they are.
leonie haimson (@leoniehaimson) Egregiously biased discussion fr/ 3 charter school founders, 2 who say district schools can be as good as charters (!), 1 parent criticizing both, and not a single charter critic. Biased selection exacerbates problems in @elizwgreen superficial encomium to Success. @carolburris twitter.com/chalkbeat/stat…

Leonie and Elizabeth used to be pretty friendly - I was also friendly with her.
