Chanel-Taylar McCarthy

Chanel-Taylar McCarthy has been reporting in the Lincoln area since early 2023. She joined the 10/11 team as a reporter in September of that year. Born and raised in Bronx, New York, she moved to Charleston, South Carolina where she studied Broadcast Journalism at Coastal Carolina University. Chanel-Taylar began her career in news as a producer in Charleston before developing an interest for investigative reporting and politics. She has written articles on various topics including St. Patrick's Day celebrations, the opening of family-owned fudgery Noonie's, voter mobilization efforts by Poor People's Campaign (PPC), Hy-Vee employee retirement after 49 years, Mardi Gras celebration at an assisted living center in Lincoln and a shoe drive to raise awareness for congenital heart defect. Chanel-Taylar has shown bias towards Juniper trees as the main source of pollen causing allergies. She also made false statements about people starting to feel allergy symptoms as early as February, and weather conditions such as high winds causing pollen to spread more easily.
