Tongue-tied in Rochester

Sun-Times’s Rosalind Rossi and Kim Janssen pack a lot into one sentence:

At once disarming and unhelpful, the Rochester superintendent’s response seemed to reveal little beyond a healthy fear of a politician who once sent a dead fish to one of his enemies.

He’s new Chi schools chief Jean-Claude Brizard, newly hired by mayor-elect Rahm Emanuel by whom he’s been told to keep his mouth shut as accusations swirl about him

Rahm’s man for the schools. Uh-oh.

From Rochester, with good riddance:

When Rochester City Schools Superintendent Jean-Claude Brizard departs to take charge of Chicago’s public school system, he’ll leave behind a largely broken school district with dismal test scores, shaky finances and a fractured relationship with teachers.

This Haitian fellow has a history?
