Watch Michelle Rhee pull a Romney: loves to fire people
From Michael Winerip’s New York Times article:
“Always, she preens for the cameras. Early in her chancellorship, she was trailed for a story by the education correspondent of “PBS NewsHour,” John Merrow.
At one point, Ms. Rhee asked if his crew wanted to watch her fire a principal. “We were totally stunned,” Mr. Merrow said.
She let them set up the camera behind the principal and videotape the entire firing. “The principal seemed dazed,” said Mr. Merrow. “I’ve been reporting 35 years and never seen anything like it.””
It takes a strong stomach, but you can watch the video below. Out of a sense of compassion and decency, the PBS crew chose not to film the principal’s face.
