Review of Holiday Loan-Sharking

This is a nicely edited piece about high interest "Pay Stub Loans" that are targeted to low income individuals as a way to get cash for holiday shopping. The narration and actualities are well done, and the piece flows well right up to the end, which is rather abrupt. If a closing could be added to this piece, it would fit well into a news magazine program.
