It is bad science, normally,

to argue that a hypothesis is proven simply because there is no other hypothesis that is consistent with the data.

Never the less I will argue that because there is no other credible explanation for the circumstances, my hypothesis is proven.

My hypothesis is;
the leadership of the Journal and the Tribune are deliberately and methodically covering up the extent of the corruption and incompetence in the leadership of the APS.

The data;

• There is going to be an audit of the administration of the APS.
• In controversy; the scope of the audit.

• the audit will be limited to meaningless comparisons to other school districts with similar demographics;
• or the audit will expose the incompetence and corruption in the leadership of the APS.

The decision that will determine the scope of the audit, is the single most important decision that this school board will ever make.

Stakeholders are completely unaware of the controversy;

because the Journal and the Trib
have yet to print a single word about it.


Neither has offered any explanation, defense, or will even acknowledge that the question has been raised.

Stonewalling is the only defense of an indefensible position.
