The end of 2010 is fast approaching, and it’s time to look back and take stock of all the important news that took place, and in some cases, is still taking place in the Charlotte region. We’ll be joined by news gatherers from journalistic organizations around the city for a discussion of the stories that made headlines in 2010.

– Editorial Page Editor, The Charlotte Observer

  2. The only coverage I noticed on Chief Monroe’s disclosure lapse of Marcus Jackson’s record was on WFAE. The Charlotte Observer gave him a break, for whatever reasons. This is what we can expect from cash-strapped, former Knight-Ridder publications: a paucity of advocacy journalism that might run afoul of local officials.

  3. Whenever I walk or drive down the street and see a Latin looking person, my first thought is not “he/she is illegal.” My first thought is “what a hard worker trying to make their place in this wonderful country. ” Also, I agree that the phrase “illegal alien” is incorrect. Although I believe strongly that the ones who are not documented are indeed illegal, I think they should be called “undocumented refugee.” I would not call them “immigrant” since they are not immigrants who have gone through the immigration process.
