Jlallen, I haven't really been following the Trump U case, except for the fact that the Democrats are pouncing on it like the GOP has been pouncing on Benghazi and Hillary's e-mails.

But what I've noticed in the past year or two is how the mainstream media has been covering "for profit" schools like DeVry and Corinthian Colleges. Just last year there was a $500M judgment against Corinthian, for example.

OK, but it seems to me that the media only wants to go after the "for profit" institutions and leave the "non-profit" universities alone. Why? It should be obvious. The "non-profit" universities are the very creators and guardians of the politically correct culture that the left considers sacrosanct.

That's why I told Crazy Joe that there is no difference between a degree from Trump U and a degree in gender studies or art history from some $40K/year liberal arts school. Yet the former is being sued up the wazoo and the latter is being left alone.

Because who's responsible for teaching the liberal arts student about the reality of college debt and the value of a degree? Not the political left, apparently.
