Dana Goldstein reports:
Mr. Walters promoted prayer in schools and sought to remove classic works of literature from libraries, deeming them pornographic. He supported a plan for a publicly funded religious charter school in Oklahoma, but the Supreme Court rejected the plan earlier this year.
He has also been accused of running a disorganized state education department, and has had trouble holding onto staff.
Most recently, he has had a tense relationship with members of the state Board of Education, the body he leads. The board met without him several weeks ago, after he was accused of having inappropriate material playing on his office television during an official meeting. After an investigation, the Oklahoma County sheriff called the incident “purely an accident,” and said the images were from a Jackie Chan movie. [NSFW]
