U.S. Reading Program Invesigated for Financial Mismanagement

According to the Associated Press, the Inspector General of the Department of Education has referred allegations of conflict of interest to the Justice Department. The report suggests that the Reading First program, created by the No Child Left Behind law has seen federal officials try to tell local governments how to run their programs and that some of the people putting the pressure on had financial interests in the results. Sounds like someone needs lessons in how to read a leger book as well as a story.
