Haven’t had enough fun at the expense of Chancellor Michelle Rhee‘s “Braveheart” Education Next story? Head over to D.C. Wire, where Bill Turque makes a medieval jab at the profile and its over-the-top lead image:

“The accompanying story by June Kronholz is, as the picture suggests, almost uniformly admiring. Although it doesn’t address what happened to the real Braveheart, Scottish rebel William Wallace, who was hanged, disemboweled, beheaded and quartered in 1305 for rising up against the British crown.”

One commenter brings the discussion back into the current millennium: “I don’t want Rhee to be beheaded, I just want her to resign.”

Since Rhee took office in 2007, it’s become quite trendy to follow the fiery Chancellor around for awhile and then write a breathless profile about her crusade to fix D.C.’s schools. C’mon, Education Next, all the cool kids are doing it. For interested readers, here’s a sampling:
