Is Watching The View Dangerous to Your Health?

Warning: Best read out loud with a sarcastic and snarky tone.

Recently on The View, Whoopi Goldberg attempted to make a connection between teacher tenure and a guaranteed lifetime teaching job. We all know tenure allows for due process during a firing, not permanent employment. As Peter Greene pointed out, tenure isn’t a firing protection—it’s actually a defense against the threat of firing. A teacher can stand up for what is right when they are told, “Do this or I will fire you.”

Also on The View is anti-vaccine wacko Jenny McCarthy.  It appears parents are refusing vitamin K injections for their newborns because they think it is a vaccine. Low vitamin K can cause brain bleeds in newborns.

If I used the connect-the-dots logic of education reform idiotlogues, I would conclude that people who are uninformed about tenure cause brain bleeds. But I can’t stoop that low, so I’ll say watching The View isn’t dangerous to your health. Although it might cause depression, which Scientology can help you with…
