The NBC Nightly News was broadcast from El Paso tonight. You can watch stories from the broadcast via this website (click on Tale of two Cities for a profile of El Paso and Juarez), and here's a blog entry about it with comments from some El Pasoans.

What did you think of the broadcast?

I think they failed to address a lot of the real issues. There are so many things that happen in El Paso that people don't really know about.

I'm so lame, I almost cried watching it. I miss it so much.

Yeah, I thought it barely touched the surface on immigration issues, especially illegal immigration. But you probably need a lot more than a half-hour broadcast with commercials to address that. I wish they had interviewed more of the border-crossers, that might have added some color to it.

Yeah, that would have been a great addition to the broadcast. I've been thinking about it a lot lately. I hope they did some of it but just didn't show it or are planning to use it on another story. I highly doubt it.
