Shocking news

This is shocking news, and I know I speak for all of us [when] I tell how sorry we are to hear of this. I know this is a hectic time, but we would certainly like to know more about how this has transpired. The implications for public radio in Ohio are quite serious, not to mention the public relations impact of this announcement.

Please convey to your staff our admiration for their work and that they are in our thoughts as we learn of this announcement.
