The new education patronage

L.A school boss, John Deasy (the man from Gates) has topped his bureaucracy with a gaggle of extravagantly-paid Broadies and Gates-ies.    

"...he says will assert a laserlike focus on instruction, but some have assailed the cost as well as ties to outside groups and philanthropies expected to pay for many of these positions." -- Howard Blume, L.A. Times

The Board of Education approved five of Deasy's appointments in a closed-door meeting Tuesday.

"Oh, no one knows what goes on behind closed doors" -- Charlie Rich
