MEMPHIS, Tenn. -- One of five MATA board members who resigned following escalating tensions over the search for a new CEO is talking about her decision to leave.

"We were being called liars. We were being told what our job was not and what it was, and that we were doing a lousy job," said Sandi Klink, a former MATA board member, in an exclusive interview with WREG.
