"Native Of" For "Immigrant"--And An Immigrant Mass Murder That Didn't Happen
I first noticed this after the killings by Cho Seung-Hui, who was described as a "native of" rather than an "immigrant from" Korea. If he'd been a valedictorian, you can be sure he'd be described as an "immigrant."

The program is fraud-prone, and there are a number of things wrong with it. (The author quotes a CIS spokesman explaining a couple of them.) But you probably read about it in much more detail here, a little over two years ago:
