Arthel Neville does good

Arthel Neville was a West Coast reporter for A Current Affair, covering the usual Hollywood, murder and scandal stories, until the last week of August when Hurricane Katrina hit and her hometown, New Orleans, got flooded.

Arthel spent the next few weeks covering the aftermath. Being a member of the first family of New Orleans music, the story was especially personal to her. She lost possessions, memories and friends.

Meanwhile, Geraldo Rivera showed up in New Orleans at the end of that first week and stole a lot of attention by grabbing babies, weeping and other hammy ploys. A couple of months later, A Current Affair got canceled and Roger Ailes gave his boy Geraldo the time slots.

How and why sexagenarian Geraldo Rivera replaced A Current Affair is a different story. Look at his dud of a show to see what he did with it.

Arthel has gotten a lot of response because of her connection to the story. And because of the way she covered the story.

She covered the story because she had to. Not because it was an opportunity. She covered it regretfully and with a real piece of her heart. And when it was over--when the gig was over-- she did some good with it.

She started a website. Check it out.

Arthel, I am updating our web site: www.dominican-sisters.net. (You can see some of your old nuns from high school in the Memorials.) You are part of our story; we are very proud of you. I love your photo on the blog (Nov. '05), and want very much to have it in our web site. Please let me know how to make it OK to put it in Our Story, where you already are by name.

Thanks, and God bless you!

Sister Dorothy Dawes, O.P.
