Summary

School’s in! We’re looking at HBO’s new movie, “Bad Education.” Based on a true story, school superintendent Frank Tassone is on top of the world, but things begin to unravel when a high school journalist is assigned a story about the budget. Does it get a passing grade? (Note: Bad Education is based on this outstanding New York Magazine article by Bob Kolker.) FOR OUR SPOILER FREE REVIEW OF “BAD EDUCATION,” GO TO 28:00 Then, a look at episodes 1-3 of Netflix’s ambitious series, “The Innocence Files.” Part one deals with a pair of rape-homicides of children in Mississippi. This case - and many others - revolves around an arrogant dentist whose application of bite mark analysis has led to wrongful convictions.
