Crowd-sourcing the up-till-now secret DOE/charter lobby emails
Have you ever wondered how what Joel Klein was busy writing on his Blackberry during meetings?
Or how closely he worked with the charter lobby to get the charter cap lifted and on other issues?
Now’s your chance to find out. The UFT FOILed emails between DOE and the charter lobbyists and got a large bunch of messages after long delay and obstructionism from DOE. Apparently more emails are coming.
Reporters received pages of these emails as well as the UFT, and some wrote stories; Diane Ravitch blogged about them. But until today, no one had posted them all online.
