Back For Another Week

The Next Lifetime Original

Cindy George is appealing her murder conviction this week and The Plain Dealer has the scoop, or at least an over dramatized version of it. This is a 10-pager, people, so be prepared, because honestly no one should have to read anything that long in The Plain Dealer. Scandal! Shock! Mediocre Journalism!

Euclid Schools Tell Bill Gates Where he can Shove it

The Bill and Melinda Gates foundation helped to create six small schools in Euclid and now those schools are ditching the funding. Seems the Gates’ foundation wants to train more AP teachers and the schools are content to stay as is. What kind of statement this makes I’m not sure.

Records Bill Confuses

Ohio legislature passed a new public-records bill that somehow requires training and increases penalties for officials who withhold, but also denies journalists free access to information on concealed weapons carriers. Another strange combination used to pass an otherwise questionable law? Me thinks so. But before you get yourself all riled up, read the article below this one about a library sponsored Madden tournament. What this has to do with reading is still unclear.
