Failure Factory: How Baltimore public Schools Deprive Taxpayers and Students of a Future
by Chris Papst
"Chris Papst’s new book Failure Factory: How Baltimore public Schools Deprive Taxpayers and Students of a Future is an astonishing portrayal of a corrupt system which cheats the taxpayers and cheats the students. Chris spent years investigating the tragic and infuriating failures of the Baltimore City Schools as an investigative reporter for Sinclair’s Fox 45 “Project Baltimore.” He has written a devastating outline of how the Baltimore City Schools as bureaucracy defrauds the taxpayers, the U S Government and the students. I just finished a Newt’s World podcast with Chris and his story is astonishing and a revelation about the deliberate fraudulent, criminal behavior of many big city school systems. This is a must read."
