NEW from @JoeBReporter and @noroneill: The elephant in the room on the eve of a President Donald Trump rally for U.S. Sen. Darline Graham was someone not even in the race. It was U.S. Rep. Ralph Norman, the Rock Hill native who ran for both governor and senator this year. #scpol

"Blood-soaked killing fields?" President Trump's over-the-top description of NC cities contradicts his own AG, Todd Blanche, at the same event: "North Carolina is ground zero for exactly what is working." Story from @dani__battaglia and @noroneill. newsobserver.com/news/politi…

As you may have heard, several of my colleagues at The Charlotte Observer were laid off yesterday. It was a very tough day for all of us and we lost some very good people who contributed a lot to the coverage of this community we all love so much.
There's a go-fund me to help them. Please contribute if you can, and please share.

My job covering SC politics and government for The State was eliminated yesterday.
Reporting here has been a dream, and I’ve loved writing for my community. I’m very sad to leave, but I’m so grateful for everyone I worked with at the newspaper.

Jeff is a talented reporter, great teammate and wonderful person. He, like everyone else in this layoff, deserved better.
Horrible loss for the community and this amazing city we call home.
Please consider donating to the numerous Charlotte Observer employees laid off this week! A huge loss for our newsroom.
McClatchy layoffs affected a third of our reporting staff in Charlotte. They covered vital beats. A paper without an education or investigative reporter? A head-scratcher.
There's a lot to say, but for now I'll leave it at: please help, if you can. gofund.me/b0b34f55c

Today I found out I was one of eight Charlotte Observer reporters who will be laid off. In two weeks we - and many, many more at other McClatchy papers - will all be jobless.
I don’t really know what else to say other than I hope people with job leads will help us out.

Unfortunately, I am one of the journalists who was affected by the layoffs at @theobserver yesterday.
I’m so grateful to my colleagues, and I’m proud of the work we’ve done together.
Send job leads my way!

The Charlotte Observer today laid off 8 reporters. They helped the paper tonight secure — for the first time in years — a 1st place General Excellence NC press award.
I hope McClatchy figures it out before our newsrooms and their communities suffer again.

He is a millionaire real estate developer who casts himself against elites; a longtime officeholder who rails against the establishment, @noroneill writes as she looks at @RalphNorman’s political career and what’s next for him.
