Bad teacher: Eureka suspends teacher over class being shown ‘Daily Show’ episodes

A Eureka High School teacher has been suspended until Nov. 28 for showing three segments of "The Daily Show" in his government and law class and warning students against an Internet search that yields results deemed to be pornographic.

School Superintendent Randy Crump suspended first-year teacher Rhett Felix on Tuesday morning following a two-hour executive session of the Eureka-based District 140 school board Monday night. During the public portion of the meeting, parents complained about bleeped obscenities and some sexual content of the segments and about a perception that Felix appears to have a liberal political bias.
