Although I’ve been covering the education beat like Ryan Walters monitoring a kid’s bathroom, I swear on a box of kitty litter that I’m not trying to turn this website into an unabashed public education watchdog blog.
It’s just that I find it extremely fascinating that Oklahoma’s public education system is now being run by religious rednecks who want to dismantle public education and turn it into a private enterprise system, and think it’s something people should know about.
Plus, we stumble across weird things that make for great articles like, you know, Ogle Moles leaking internal Dept of Ed. emails to us, Ryan Walters commanding his HR director to email threats to those Moles, those Moles sharing those threats with us, and then Oklahoma lawmakers asking a perturbed Ryan Walters about the fiasco during a joint legislative budget hearing!
