Questions for Laura Meckler (WSJ)
Laura Meckler of the Wall Street Journal offers "Tech Industry's Stance on Immigration Scrutinized". Ironically, she doesn't actually do that, at least from a pro-borders perspective. The "scrutiny" in question is whether high tech supporters of amnesty are pushing a separate H1B bill rather than comprehensive immigration reform.
Real reporting would consist of Meckler looking into what the tech industry actually wants and how they'd profit from amnesty and increased immigration. Real reporting would also consist of asking the tech industry why they can't invest in American citizens rather than increasing skilled immigration, asking them about higher unemployed older tech workers, and so on. Apparently Meckler isn't paid to do real reporting.

.@laurameckler: re: "Tech Industry’s Stance on Immigration Scrutinized", when will you actually do that?

.@laurameckler: when will you follow the money on the tech industry's support for mass #immigration? How much money do they expect to make?

.@laurameckler: when will you follow Zuckerberg's money regarding his mass #immigration / "reform" push? Who's getting how much?

MT @laurameckler Opponents of Dreamer/military provision argue illegal immigrants will take military jobs from Americans..

.@laurameckler: since, due to cutbacks, there are in fact a limited # of military jobs, couldn't that assertion be true?

.@laurameckler: aren't there only a finite number of college slots & more qualified applicants than slots? Can you figure that out?

.@laurameckler: even FrontPageMag discusses how there's no STEM shortage. When will you do real reporting & call tech leaders on that?

.@24AheadDotCom @laurameckler & would current "Affirmative Action" policies put native-born at a disadvantage?

@24AheadDotCom @Glaivester @laurameckler Plenty of STEM people looking for work.

.@laurameckler: #LATimes says: "On the campaign trail these days, Donnelly... rarely mentions his time as a border activist".

.@laurameckler: more #LATimes: "Instead [Donnelly] focuses on.. economy.. drought, what he calls overreaching [govt] and.. high-speed rail"

.@laurameckler: #LATimes shows how deceptive you are: http://peekURL.com/zE9EbEG When will you correct your deception?
