Karen, I vote for sending out a press release rather than having disgruntled
and surprised customers go running to the press. If possible, it should be directed to metro/general assignment reporters rather than political types. I think it becomes a more positive and manageable story if we're up front and get our side out before it looks like massive consumer complaints against a company that is posting hundreds of millions in revenue. Without an announcement, I'm afraid you'll get the story about the poor family who has been trying to save money and is now facing huge utility bills that they didn't expect and can't meet; with one, we may be able to get coverage that is more thoughtful and looks at some of the legitimate reasons Enron had to take this action.
