This week, KOMU viewers are "sticking" it to us about our flu shot coverage.

A viewer named alice wrote us to say: "Why do you always have to show someone getting a shot when you mention the flu? People know what shots are but do not want to watch it, especially during the dinner hour. You can show someone at a doctor's office or anything else but getting stuck by a needle."

"A lot of the stories are actually about the flu shot so you have to have that needle video in some matter," said KOMU Managing Editor Randy Reeves. "What we try to do and we have not been successful everytime is to avoid that shot where the needle hits the skin."

And June wrote us about KOMU's Honor Flight coverage: "While I understand the need to recognize the services that veterans have provided, I believe that KOMU has gone a bit overboard. I say this with remembrance of my grandfather who was a veteran, and yet, I know he would find this over-attention foolish due to the fact that he was neither prideful nor resentful about his service in the military."

"The Honor Flight really gives us two great reasons to cover it," said KOMU News Director Stacey Woelfel. "The first one is we have really good characters in these war veterans that we're able to cover and so they have stories that we haven't heard and we get to find out about those. The second one is it's something that we can really adopt and latch on to. It's a project that people want to know about, we can be the vehicle for them to know about it and that's something that really needs continuing coverage."
