NPR promotes Del Barco

Longtime Los Angeles reporter Mandalit Del Barco is getting a raise. The memo at National Public Radio:

From South Central Los Angeles to Central America, she's been telling stories with wit and compassion on NPR for years, and recently she's spread her powerful reporting and compelling writing on gang violence in LA across the network. So please join Phil Bruce and me in congratulating Mandalit Del Barco on her promotion to Correspondent.
