become part of Tree City U.S.A. He has read local newspapers and transcripts about the matter, and he now has the opportunity to interview a city official whose department oversees the planting and maintenance of the city's trees. Scott asks you whether he should interview the official. How should you respond? A) Do the interview. The official could furnish a perspective that otherwise could be lacking or absent. B) Do the interview. The official may offer to ghostwrite your speech for you, ensuring you will have a good speech. C) Forget the interview.
