Matt Dixon joined the assault when he wrote about the parent trigger this morning.
He wrote: Bush, who has endorsed Bean, advocated for a proposal dubbed the "parent trigger" bill in the last session. It would have allowed parents of students attending a poorly performing public school to vote to convert it to a charter school. The bill drew heated opposition from teachers' unions.
What he doesn’t mention is the parent trigger was also opposed by the PTA and every other parent group in Florida. When Dixon leaves out that pertinent information he makes the teacher’s union seem obstructionist when nothing is farther from the truth.
Shame on you Mr. Dixon for giving incomplete information and allowing your own opinions to creep into your news reporting.
