I give the fact that he may be completely different in person but with his sentence fragments and mispronunciation of simple words I seriously doubt it. I do disagree with his viewpoints too and I will say he's not as bad as some of the Obama Kool Aid drinking clowns over on WMPR. Especially when David Archie was on the air.<br /><br />As far Kingfish's taste in music, I have no problem with it plus it's his right to spotlight any type of music he wants considering it is HIS blog! I will say this, when he starts posting the "music" of Justin Bieber, The Jonas Brothers and others in the pop arena at the moment, I'm outta here because it will be obvious he's lost his mind!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-29339213989288277852010-05-17T14:37:33.412-05:002010-05-17T14:37:33.412-05:00Though I did download the report I have not yet re...Though I did download the report I have not yet read it.<br /><br />I did look at the first few pages, and would suggest you correct your original post. A reader would conclude from your headline and text that the report was published by Fordham University, a Jesuit university in NY, which is not the case.<br /><br />"Fordham (?) publishes study on how autonomy affects charter schools<br /><br />Bored and need a study to read tonight? Fordham University (?) just published a study on how autonomy affects the performance of charter schools."<br /><br />On page 2 of the report:<br />"This report is available in full on the Institute’s website. The Institute is neither<br />connected with nor sponsored by Fordham University."<br /><br />I enjoy reading this site, and do so daily, and especially value the rigor of the reporting, though I often do not agree with the site's opinions. Especially regarding music.<br /><br />By the way, it would seem to me that only someone who has never heard Derrick Johnson speak would accuse him of not being able to speak a coherent sentence. I have heard Mr. Johnson speak, and one would never accuse him of incoherence. Perhaps that person only disagrees with Mr. Johnson's viewpoints.<br /><br />Keep up the good work and excellent reporting.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-11167764996173136012010-05-17T07:29:09.896-05:002010-05-17T07:29:09.896-05:00Cecil Brown is a joke.

The NAACP has become a sad and pathetic joke that has no coherent vision of enriching the quality of life for most Black people by stressing the importance of education, crime, abortion, and for deadbeat men to be an important part of their children's lives.
