Lol, you're delusional. No worries- at least I didn't get fired for sexually harassing women. That is the definition of a miserable (and pathetic) person. I'll be just fine, thanks!

+1. From the Post: "When this article was published, The Washington Post was aware that the freelance reporter who co-wrote it was substitute-teaching in the Montgomery County school district. Although she did not work at any of the schools named in this article, Post editors later determined that her subbing for the district, including during the month when this article was published, created a potential conflict of interest according to The Post’s standards — one that we should have avoided. This potential conflict of interest is unrelated to the accuracy of her reporting; The Post stands behind this article." |
| I hope he sues the Washington Post and every media platform that posted this story. |
For what? |
For what? Was something proven to be false? |
Oh? Any information to share? |
And I hope the MCPS Central Office staff who altered the findings are imprisoned. |
| Now that I have left teaching I feel like I got my life back. I have lost weight and no longer feel like I am going to have a stress heart attack everyday. I work the hours I get paid for and no longer feel exploited with admin trying to play gotcha all day. It makes me want to shout my story from the rooftops so no teacher is ever exploited again. |
No, the Washington Post stands by the accuracy of the reporting, which btw detailed multiple lies by Joel Biedleman in addition to his sexual harassment and bullying. |
| But the post should have never legally been able to post these stories due to conflict of interest. |
It isn't a question of "legally." It's about the Post's own standards, and their preference to avoid the appearance of a potential conflict of interest, even though they had included from the outset of the article series a note indicating that Robbins had worked as an MCPS substitute, for different schools than those mentioned. |
+1 There is no law here. This is a matter of journalistic ethics and entirely about "appearance of impropriety" rather than actual impropriety or conflict of interest. Robbins was well-situated to tell this story in part because of her background in the District. Teachers trusted that she would keep their confidence, so they told her their stories. Now that the story has taken on a life of its own, I think it's fine and correct for her to step back because the victims have other folks who are now willing to take them seriously. |
| Nope the post will be sued… |
Oh Joel, you’re not a lawyer. |
Go for it. It will give you something to do all day and you have the money to blow. |
