Federal taxpayers are spending $56 million on competing federal and state-level green jobs studies. Carolina Journal Executive Editor Don Carrington‘s report on the problems associated with these reports attracted attention from Lucianne.com and Watchdog.org. N.C. Senate Republicans promoted Carrington’s report on the court dates scheduled for associates of Gov. Beverly Perdue in connection with alleged campaign-finance violations. Managing Editor Rick Henderson discusses Carrington’s report on the Perdue campaign court cases during this weekend’s edition of Curtis Media Group’s “People In Politics” radio program. Henderson joined Rick and Donna Martinez on WPTF to discuss the surprising news of conservative Internet publisher Andrew Breitbart’s death. Publisher Jon Ham discussed the latest Carolina Journal print edition during an appearance with Chad Adams on the WLTT Radio morning program. Both Real Clear Politics and the Christian Science Monitor highlighted Associate Editor David Bass‘ analysis for the American Spectator about recent developments in the race for the Republican presidential nomination. N.C. Senate Republicans promoted Bass’ article on candidate filings for the 2012 elections and contributor Dan Way‘s article on a proposed Durham charter school that has run into opposition from entrenched public education interests. Watchdog.org promoted Associate Editor Sara Burrows‘ latest report on the “chicken nuggets” controversy. A Burlington Times-News family columnist, Examiner.com’s “Republican Examiner,” and NewsWithViews.com are among the media outlets and blogs that continue to publicize Burrows’ work on this topic. A letter in the Outer Banks Sentinel cites Burrows’ recent article on a controversial “game fish” bill.
