There is only one story, but two headlines and two different spins.
One spin focuses on the rally at city hall attended by an estimated 40 protesters who claimed the tests were racially and culturally biased.
The other spin focuses on the fact that 3,000 teachers this year (10,000 in the past five years) failed the mandatory certification exam with some teachers failing it more than a dozen times.
One headline is from the New York Post and the other is from the New York Times. Readers can assess if there exists a political bias in either story.
Thanks to Jerry Scharf at Common Sense & Wonder for pointing me to this story.
