Jeff Pelline's Sierra Foothills Report

Here are some scoops and “scoops of perception” — AKA prescient commentary — from this blog in 2010. This includes reader commentary. They’re listed in no particular order.

The local media followed up on these reports, or in some cases — such as Tom McClintock’s comment about the “left wing” clerk recorder or his “support” letter for the broadband grant, or Mark Meckler’s personal plea for $$$ — should have. The busiest day on this blog was Nov. 3, when I provided a package of election reporting.

Happy New Year!
