The Rhino's John Hammer takes credit for breaking the Say Yes to Education story

"We kinda, sorta got some free air time on Fox 8 recently.  When Fox 8 anchor Neill McNeill gave the lead-in for the Say Yes story, he used the headline from the front page of the Rhino Times, "Say Yes May Have to Say No," almost word for word.

Even though we broke the story about the financial difficulties of Say Yes to Education Guilford, McNeill didn't give the Rhino Times credit.  I'm sure it was simply an oversight on his part, but a shout-out would have been nice."
