Debate about the term "Spanglish"

Is the term "Spanglish" a positive one, or does it reflect and create harmful connotations? At the 22nd conference on Spanish in the United States (Feburary 2009, Coral Gables, FL), professors Ana Celia Zentella and Ricardo Otheguy were invited to publicly debate this topic. They generously agreed to allow filming of the debate.
