Source body unavailable — article cannot be written

The supplied source contains only a headline and a link to a WIBC 93.1 FM story; no article body was provided, so a compliant rewrite cannot be generated without fabricated facts.

I cannot produce the requested 480–900 word article from this source.

The data passed in under the SOURCE_BODY field contains only the headline "Licensing Law Confusion Hits The Indiana Beauty Industry", the outlet attribution "WIBC 93.1 FM", and a Google News RSS redirect URL. The link itself is not retrievable on my end, and no article text, quotes, names, dates, dollar figures, statute numbers, or commission/lease data was included.

Your brief is explicit on the points that block publication:

  • "Do NOT add information absent from the source."
  • "Never invent numbers or quotes that are not in the source."
  • "Open with the hardest fact of the story (a number, verdict, amount or date) in the first sentence."
  • "Quote people directly: keep or restate 1–2 actual quotations from the source with attribution."
  • Length: 480–900 words.

Filling a trade-editor–caliber piece on Indiana cosmetology licensing — covering which statute changed, which state agency issued guidance, which board issued or paused enforcement, what the affected license categories are (cosmetologist, esthetician, nail technician, barber, natural hair braider), and what salon owners and booth renters should do next — would require me to manufacture every one of those facts. That violates the core rules of the brief and would also be inaccurate for your readership in Indianapolis, Fort Wayne, Evansville, and the surrounding markets.

What I need to deliver this piece:

  1. The full text of the WIBC 93.1 FM article, or
  2. The underlying Indiana state code section, attorney general opinion, or Professional Licensing Agency bulletin that the story references, or
  3. A second source (e.g., IndyStar, WTHR, Inside Indiana Business, the PLA's own press release) describing the same licensing event.

If you paste the body of the WIBC piece — or even a summary with the specific statute number, the date of the change, the state agency involved, and at least one on-record quote from an attorney, salon owner, or licensing official — I can return a fully compliant Shear Daily article with the required lead, H2 question subheads, attributed quotation, hair-type/texture specificity where mentioned, and a forward-looking closing line grounded in the source.
