The latest Carolina Journal cover story from Executive Editor Don Carrington documents the dubious analysis that led advocates to predict that high-speed rail projects would generate 4,800 jobs in North Carolina. The online version of that story attracted attention this week from Watchdog. org, Beaufort Observer, Lincoln Tribune, and N.C. Senate Republicans in their daily press email. Senate Republicans also highlighted Associate Editor Sara Burrows‘ preview of this week’s legislative action and contributor Karen McMahan‘s article on proposed changes to the state’s auto dealer regulations. The Lincoln Tribune published Burrows’ legislative preview, along with Associate Editor David Bass‘ article on education tax credits for parents of students with special needs. A Triad Business Journal article on legislation dubbed the Life Sciences Development Act cited an earlier CJ report on the topic. Bass discusses social legislation he has covered for CJ during an appearance this weekend on Curtis Media Group’s “People And Politics.”
