The July 10, 2008 New York Sun reports that Tweed is now setting up a TRUTH SQUAD to peruse anti-Klein web sites and blogs. Seven Department of Education employees will actually be paid for checking the internet all day long to crack down on bloggers who do not stick to hyping the party line. Money that could have been used for smaller classes will now fund an Orwellian Ministry of Truth squad to uncover educational dissidents and thought crimes. Deputy schools chancellor, Christopher Cerf, who came up with the Truth Squad concept, siad, "We believe in the truth." How about some truth when it comes to dumbing down reading and math exams, reporting graduation statistics or issuing letter grades for schools?
Honest Joe Klein's sycophants plan to utilize the COMMENTS section of blogs to correct "misinformation" and allow the truth to set everyone free. Tweed officials assert that the Truth Squad "is a natural extension of their commitment to provide accurate information to the public." Yes, we must have all bloggers towing the party line. Klein's scheme seems analogous to the work of censors in mainland China who watch the internet twenty-fours a day. Any blogger who dares to publish a blog critical of the government ends up in jail.
