Another says the supposed demands come from UTLA, the United Teachers of Los Angeles, the teachers union. But I can’t find demands of the sort on their web site. They don’t think it’s safe to reopen schools yet, but I find no demands. Their conclusion is based on a research paper they funded. Here is their link to a summary of that paper. The summary doesn’t mention those demands.

Here is their web site: UTLA recommends keeping LAUSD school campuses closed; refocus on robust distance learning practices for Fall | UTLA
The L.A. Times and the N.Y. Times are not reporting these supposed demands in their article about the school district choosing to not reopen this morning.
I conclude, therefore, that the article in your link is not true but is attempting to divide us. I wonder if it is even an American source, but is instead a Russian disinformation source. Russia longs to see us at each other’s throats. United we stand! (I remember being on a train from Moscow to Helsinki in July of 1984. There was a copy of “Pravda” (“Truth” in Russian) in a newspaper rack with a big photo of well-dressed Americans in New York at a taxi stand waiting for a cab. I asked an army officer who spoke English to translate the caption for me. It said, essentially, “Once-prosperous Americans in New York standing in line at a soup kitchen waiting for free food.” So much for truth!)
Thanks for sharing this so we could study it more carefully. This sort of lie spreads like wildfire and makes us hate each other. Put America first and hesitate to believe the lie. Thanks for doing that. |
Unfortunately many many people see things on FACEBOOK and repost it as if they were in church listening to the Gospel of whatever friend posted it.I myself never pass on any info until I have vetted it myself. So good for you for doing the digging.
Just like Tucker Carlson, saying last night that we should not judge people for qualities they cannot control. What does that mean? He was addressing his PROVEN racist writer who had to resign in shame.
So I’m not surprised that Fox would spread that spew, and try to put California in a damaging light, they spread misinformation about NY all the time.
Fox also said “you have a better chance of being struck by lightning then catching COVID-19“
Tell that to 135,615 people who have died. I haven’t researched this BUT I don’t think that many people die in one year from lightening strikes.
