While it's true Vardon did "borrow" some information from our original post for his revised piece on the topic, specifically the fact that the charter school does not actually exist, he got the college degree information from State Impact, not us. <br /><br />2. The quote in your comment above was actually from our second blog post on the topic. Which came out a day after the State Impact piece. And the entire point of the post was to chastise the media for blaming Jackson instead of properly blaming Kasich for failing to vet the appointee.<br /><br />You may have missed the sentences before this one, so let me help refresh your memory:<br /><br />"Jackson has become the target of unfair attacks on his own character by mainstream media outlets... it is wrong to criticize Jackson personally for this placement."<br /><br />I realize you have an angle and a spin you're trying to push here, but give me a break with the name calling and the fake outrage and at least try to get the basic facts straight.Josephhttp://plunderbund.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7743530438680774250.post-26556166255801871042012-06-22T08:47:15.676-04:002012-06-22T08:47:15.676-04:00You are so insanely liberal, you don't even kn...You are so insanely liberal, you don't even know the filth coming from your own blog:<br /><br />"Any blame should remain squarely on the Kasich administration who made this appointment despite:<br /><br />-Being aware that Jackson may not have a college degree"<br /><br />http://www.plunderbund.com/2012/06/20/lay-off-the-qb-jackson-didnt-appoint-himself-to-the-state-board/GOHPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08074117622374712474noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7743530438680774250.post-61693652666720969582012-06-21T23:50:13.206-04:002012-06-21T23:50:13.206-04:00It also seems worth mentioning that neither Vardon...It also seems worth mentioning that neither Vardon nor Plunderbund EVER mentioned Jackson's college degree.<br /><br />You may be thinking of the State Impact story?<br /><br />It's really hard to take your fake outrage seriously when you can't even get the basic facts straight about who you are mad at and why.Josephhttp://plunderbund.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7743530438680774250.post-37794468414371629942012-06-21T23:25:20.607-04:002012-06-21T23:25:20.607-04:00Joseph is right.

And if it had, and if Jackson continued to work for the school, then he legally couldn't be appointed to the board anyway.<br /><br />If you'd bothered to read Greg's follow up post, you'd clearly see that we never attacked Jackson - instead we questioned Kasich's very poor vetting process and Nichols' ridiculous attempts (aka: lying) to put a positive spin on it.Josephhttp://plunderbund.comnoreply@blogger.com
