WCNC Story On Social Security Hearing Backlogs

The WCNC story on Social Security hearing backlogs finished last night with this segment.

Would you like to see stories like this on your local television station? Let me make a simple suggestion. Use your web browser to find one or more of your local television stations, look for an e-mail address to their investigative reporter or their assignment editor and send that person an e-mail with links to the Sunday and Monday night stories on WCNC. Tell them that the same type of problem exists in your community and that you would like to help get this story on the air locally. Television reporters need story ideas. While they like to be original, I doubt that they are completely averse to doing a local spin on a story reported elsewhere.
