How Good It Is - Lisa Thomas-Laury’s Comeback
Good news for good people.
That always makes you feel good. Gail Shister’s column highlighting the part-time return of Lisa Thomas-Laury to the Channel Six news staff was a heartening piece of news. Lisa has been sidelined for over three years by a rare neurological problem. The fact that she is back doing special reporting is a major milestone in her attempt to triumph over this medical challenge.
It is also good news for the viewers and for WPVI.
Lisa Thomas-Laury is the class act of Philadelphia anchors. Over the years, I have been so impressed by her anchoring work. But even more than that, Lisa has never succumbed to the ego driven holier-than-thou attitude that has marked the careers of some broadcast journalists in this town. She has been a beacon in public service campaigns for the needy and the challenged.
With Lisa Thomas-Laury, what you see is what you get.
I’m very happy she is coming back. When health permits, she should return to the anchor chair, where she belongs.
ON A POLITICAL NOTE:
Congratulations to South Jersey Democratic Congressman Rob Andrews. Andrews just got a plum assignment -
chairman of the Education and Labor Subcommittee on Health, Employment, Labor and Pensions .
This puts Andrews on the front line of the major discussions ahead on curing the health insurance mess.
What a trooper Lisa Thomas-Laury is. Great to see her back and healthy.
nnel 6 News Having neurological problems,I’m sure she is a fighter with God’s help. She made it. God Bless her.
It gave me hope, seeing her back.
I just saw Lisa Thomas Laury on the news tonight and my heart was filled with joy. I had heard a few years ago (from a reliable source) that she was “very” ill, so I didn’t expect her to return. I prayed for her & her family & left this situation in the Father’s hands.
Well, she looks FANTASTIC and her smile still brightens a room.
God Bless you Lisa, evidently you still have more lives to touch!
Lisa is one of the class acts of Phila. TV.
She never has had the egotistical traits of many fellow broadcasters, and instead, has cared about the community and how to serve it.
