As part of that great big project we've been hinting about, Planet Money's Adam Davidson joins the New York Times' Charles Duhigg on Weekend Edition Sunday today.
They'll be unveiling a major report in the New York Times about five school districts in Wisconsin that put $200 million into bonds that went severely, severely wrong. School board members say they believed the investment went into safe corporate bonds. Their portfolios have now lost more than 90 percent, and the districts are suing to get their money back.
The deal has bad implications for other public interests, like the New York City transit system. It's a huge story, and we'll be covering it all week.
