#RudeForHOU: Viewer support for KPRC 2′s Amy Davis after Houston mayor refuses to answer water billing questions

“You are very, VERY rude!”

That is what the mayor of Houston told Investigator Amy Davis when she tried to get him to answer questions about our ‘DRAINED’ Investigation into water bill issues. KPRC 2 viewers are reacting to how the mayor handled the situation.

The mayor ignored Amy’s repeated requests for an interview. So, Amy showed up to an event and waited until it was over to ask the Mayor questions.

He refused.

“Amy, you are very rude! Let me finish. You came to me now. you’re interrupting this event that deals with a specific subject matter. I don’t appreciate that, and so I will not be talking to you,” said Mayor Sylvester Turner.

Davis responded saying, “But, you already said you wouldn’t talk to me before this.”

“I told you years ago when you were rude and disrespectful that I was done with you,” said Mayor Turner.

Then Davis fired back saying, “Because you keep running from questions that are important to taxpayers.”
