Tonight at 5:30 should be the Viewer's Voice that deals with this incident and the response to it. I am interested to see what they do.
Did I miss it or did they not air it last night?

Thanks for your feedback.
First of all, Mr. Walton is the one who told me where he was going to buy his shotgun. Though he didn't want his face on camera, after he showed us the new weapon.... he did want to share his side of the story. He didn't want folks to think he was some kind of criminal. That's why he shared his tears, his remorse, and his side of the story. I also reminded viewers that Mr. Walton did not break any laws, because he was in the right. I'm sorry you took my story the wrong way. You didn't see my story yesterday...when I pointed out that the man Mr. Walton killed had a criminal record involving theft. Rebecca Aguilar Fox 4 News.

That's really not the point. We are showing him support in a small, tangible way. Kind of like buying him a beer. Instead of buying him a beer, should we donate the money to Alcoholics Anonymous instead? That would be totally lost on him and won't make him feel any better. If he wants to donate the money, he can make that decision for himself.
...So her suspension certainly mystifies us.
The National Association of Hispanic Journalists said:We have learned that KDFW Fox 4 general assignment reporter Rebecca Aguilar was suspended indefinitely Tuesday for aggressive but, in our estimation, professional conduct. NAHJ, a 2,300-member-strong organization, strongly urges you to reinstate Ms. Aguilar immediately for the sake of good journalism and maintaining your newscasts' credibility in the local community and national journalism community.
***? That's plain and simple intimidation. 100% unacceptable.She in turn told him, "You know I'm a reporter. I may catch up to you."
Earlier that same traumatic day, Aguilar says she picked up her newsroom phone to hear a man tell her, "I'm a gun owner. And if I ever find you, I'd like to shoot you in the head."
The same man, she believes, also had called shortly after the story aired the previous night.
"So I reported it to my bosses first, and nothing was done about it," she says. "Nothing was done about my protection. My suspension was a priority over my safety."
Probably an anti...Earlier that same traumatic day, Aguilar says she picked up her newsroom phone to hear a man tell her, "I'm a gun owner. And if I ever find you, I'd like to shoot you in the head."
Just a reminder that you are always representing a larger community when you write these things....
Rebecca Aguilar said:"I don't know if I'll survive without a blemish," she says. "Every time you Google my name now it's like 'Aguilar, suspension or ambush.' Before it was 'Aguilar, award-winner.' It's changed in a week."
