Mertz on Fernandez

by folkbum

Somehow I don’t think that a [Rose] Fernandez bio that read “Fronted a well-funded and well connected corporate lobbying effort that spent almost $200,000 [and] defeated a counter effort by teachers and educators of less than half that size and succeeded in securing profits by over funding virtual schools” would have the same appeal. [. . .]

At the center, this is about misrepresentation. Evers doesn’t pretend to be what he isn’t, Fernandez’s entire public career is based on false representations.

Be sure to read the whole thing--parts one and two.
