Regarding the piece on racial profiling.
The Daily Tar Heel - Opinion Editor justifies firing of Tuesday columnist:
"Might as well get to the point: I fired Jillian Bandes yesterday.
And not because I thought she was a racist or an idiot. She is, in fact, neither — and even if she were, I wouldn’t have fired her for those reasons.
I fired her because she strung together quotes out of context. She took sources’ words out of context. She misled those sources when she conducted interviews.
In other words, she conducted journalistic malpractice, and that’s simply not something I, or The Daily Tar Heel, will tolerate."
