I read that article about Waukegan you posted just now. I didn’t see any outrage in it. Quote the portion of the article where you saw that.
It's a fine article that is surely interesting to people in Waukegan, but I have no idea why it was on the front page of the Tribune web site other than that "[minority-majority] school district lowers standards" probably drives clicks for the Tribune base. But maybe it's more incompetence than malice.

edit: ok, it's no longer linked to from the front page of the web site. Someone probably just fucked up...
