I'm speechless. Are you trying to say the National Association of Education, CNBC and MSNBC are unbiased and factual? You must have missed it, the Washington Post article talked about the study being commissioned from an organization who's prominent member is Milton Friedman. But once again, you need to look beyond the biased reporting and note who actually had their finger on the report. In other words, who signed authenticity. And from my initial look, one of the signing members seems like he a fairly unbiased person prior to the study. As a matter of fact, if you bothered to look at his website, it looks like his biases ran in the opposite direction prior to the study. But it's impossible to take a firm stand (on the study) either way until it has actually been released. You appear to have sucked up a few 4.7 second sound-bites and ran with it again. I didn't even know the study made the mainstream television news. Just think...That spokesperson from the NEA hasn't even seen the study yet, and she's already on T.V. spinning the story, and scratching for ways to dismiss it. That should tell you where the NEA's biases rest. Somehow I think, every kid in American could become Einstein overnight and the NEA would still be saying, "there is no evidence that vouchers work".
