A: This is Action 5 News reporter Sarah O’Connell
reporting live from Washington, D. C. where a
protest has broken out. Thousands of angry citi-
zens are protesting against the proposed bailout
of the auto 1 manufacturing industry! Sir, sir, Sarah
O’Connell, Action 5 news. Can you tell us what’s
happening?
B: Yeah, yeah, we’re here because we feel this is
an injustice 2! The financial irresponsibility of big
business has to stop! We’re there to show the
government that we don’t like the way that they’re
spending our tax dollars!
A: Sir but what exactly is making everyone so angry?
B: It’s an absolute outrage, Sarah, the US govern-
ment wants to give 25 billion dollars of taxpayers’
money to the auto industry. These are companies
that have been mismanaged and are now nearly
bankrupt.
A: I see. But, many supporters of the bailout argue
that it could help save the jobs of millions of hard-
working Americans.
B: That maybe true, and I for one don’t want to see
anyone lose their job, but how can these CEOs
ask for a bailout when they’re making millions of
dollars? And then, they have the nerve to fly to
Washington in private jets! This costs hundreds
of thousands of dollars! And they’re asking for
money! That is just not right!
A: Good point. This is Sarah O’Connell reporting live
from Washington D. C., back to you, Tom.
