Michael Bloomberg should not have changed the rules and run for a third term as mayor of New York. But he did and in his arrogance, he appointed a corporate crony with no experience in public education (as a student, parent, educator, or leader) to lead the country's largest public school system.
Fiasco. Cathie Black stepped down today. Students and their families in New York are the real losers for this vacuum of leadership. Here's my fake interview with Black, created when Bloomberg gave her the job. The video takes on a new dimension now that it's clear that this whole episode was a foreseeable disaster, not "superstar management."
