Anyone who's walked into a NYC classroom can't help but be outraged by the price Education Chancellor Joel Klein's willing to pay his DC-based media/PR consultants. If you can get by the monthly price tag, which is just a tad under a NYC teacher's ANNUAL salary -- and that's a mighty bid IF my friends -- are there no PR firms in NYC, like downtown, say near Ground Zero, that would have been helped by keeping that money in the city. Big shame.

Funny, for a few minutes there I thought I was all outraged...out. Luckily, I have, well, everyone to thank for keeping the outrage going. I can't seem to go more than 20 minutes without finding another one...
