Day 2 of Texas Textbook Hearings

The Texas Board of Education held a second day of hearings over the content of its school textbooks, and the conflict was heated.

Fox News's Brian Wilson was in Austin to report on the hearings. He said the conservatives on the board racked up a few victories.

Members board are working to hash out what should and should not be in the social studies textbooks of 4.7 million students in Texas and beyond. That's because what Texas wants ends up in textbooks used all over the country.

There are 15 members of the state board; 10 Republicans and 5 Democrats. But ideologically however, it's pretty much down the middle. Social conservatives have been working for years to rid school books of what they see as liberal slant. They see it as a chance to shape young minds.
