Alexander Russo at This Week in Education has a nifty poll up on his site (a good idea that I plan to steal) asking his readers everything from “Who’s your favorite education reporter?” to “Who will be the next Ed Secretary?” He’s also asking readers to name their favorite ed blog (and we’re pleased even to be on the short list) but another poll question raises an issue: What does A-Rus have against Fordham? The last question is ”Whether you always agree with them or not, which DC-based education group or think tank do you think does the best (highest quality, most useful) work?” All the usual suspects are there: Ed Sector, The Education Trust, Rand, Brookings, but no Fordham Foundation?? There is a place for write-ins, however.
He also fails to list Elizabeth Green of the New York Sun in the best reporter category. Alas, word came today that the NY Sun is folding. Bad news for those who follow the New York ed scene. But it’s a great day for whoever ends up hiring Green. She’s too good to remain a free agent for very long.
