Daily Sun bombards us repeatedly with heart-wrenching stories meant to play on the goodness of Villagers. They also stated a cancer patient went to Tampa for cancer treatment, she didn't it was Shands. All this misrepresentation to play on our hearts knowing the sympathy card could not be played with a full disclosure. I also resent being asked to help open a business to compete with an already-established one who paid their own way to be able to serve us here in TV. Against Moffitt no, against Villagers being taken advantage of, yes.
