Two terrific stories aired on US mainstream media on Friday night, July 30, which in this age of web viewing we can still watch and let the media know how much the coverage was appreciated.
CBS Evening News did a sweet story on the Chenoa Manor Animal Sanctuary in Pennsylvania, which rehabilitates animals and the youths who come there to work with them. The story focuses on one young man from the inner city whose experiences at the farm have sparked a desire in him to pursue veterinary studies.

Jane is the one major media personality who consistently includes animal issues among the issues she covers her on her show, aptly named "Issues with Jane Velez Mitchell." She has let it be known that our comments matter, so let's be sure never to take her or her producers for granted.

Yours and the animals',
