I believe a great injustice was done concerning the piece that aired on WTVD 11. It was my impression they wanted to do a story about the PEOPLE of Wilson and their electric bills. As it went it was about a business owner that had a high electric bill. That in and of itself is not a direct reflection of the crisis we’re enduring in this community with the utility issues.
Arguably, the only thing that piece showed was an increase in a business owners bill and high rates possibly being a contributor. However, that is not a good indicator and may or may not reflect how well his business is doing.
The interview that was done with me was about the people. We can only hope there will be more to come from WTVD soon. With your help it will. Let’s continue to bombard them with emails, letters and phone calls inquiring what happened to that footage. I know they did talk to the city and as the report went “they” the city is working on the problem.
The problem is only fixable if we as a PEOPLE WORK TOGETHER. The good news is that we did get some attention in Eastern North Carolina about what is going on here in Wilson. Now I ask that we work together united as one to help ourselves.
