WFAA has raised questions about how the Dallas Independent School District spends money for marketing efforts. Here is DISD's "assignment of work" agreement with OnMessage, a Dallas consulting firm that for $150,000 in taxpayer money pledges to "leverage our disciplined methodology to develop, validate and package a clear, differentiated and consistent message for DISD to take to market." WFAA found that DISD paid this contract in full before any work had been done, and then asked for the money back when News 8 began asking questions.
