We did add a notation to this article when it aired in today’s WMOK News Check and we’d like to share it here.

 

Mayor Canada stated when we spoke on Tuesday morning that WMOK had received much of their information the way he had received his, “on Facebook”.  We need to clarify that the information that has fueled WMOK’s portion of this story was not obtained on social media.

WMOK has and will continue to seek answers to questions that have been brought to us by our community and listening audience regarding this matter.
