New York teachers enter the blogosphere
Posted by Dominic Basulto
The New York Daily News reports that the city teachers union, UFT, has created a blog to discuss its ongoing contract squabble with the city: Edwize. By entering the blogosphere, the teachers hope to get their message out to a wider audience. One point of contention is the wide salary gap between teachers in New York City and those in the posh suburbs. (Teachers in the suburbs make 16-24% more) Moreover, the blog has been vocal about suggesting that "Mayor Bloomberg was letting election year politics get in the way of negotiating a new contract for the city's 80,000 teachers."
