How can they get away with attributing a manufactured quote to an actual person?

There were so many things wrong - from little things like the drab hallways of the public school becoming filled with colorful art after the takeover, to major things like the absence of special education services - or at least the avoidance of any remedial programs for the main charaters' children.

People watch FOX "News" and accept it as truth. They bought Waiting for Superman without question. Glad to see a number of reviews that point out the propaganda.
