Bodhi Revisited

David from Silverdale

Dear Neighbours,

I understand a public interest story about Bodhi’s untimely death will not appear in the local newspaper. Apparently a certain party does not want it published. Thank goodness for Neighbourly.

I have been open with all information relating to this event. In spite of strong feelings about what happened to Bodhi, I have tried to be reasonable and even-handed with the vet. I trust the local newspaper would have been as well ...and would have fairly represented the views of all sides. Is there a genuine reason why the wider public shouldn’t know about this story? Wouldn’t being aware of what could happen to a pet at a vet be in the public interest? Could it possibly save an innocent animal’s life? Isn’t this more important than money or reputation? And what happened to a free press? This doesn’t sound like New Zealand.

Should this story be on Facebook, Twitter and the whole wide-world of social media or should I let it go? What do my neighbours think?

Sincerely,
David
