DEAR ABBY'S AT IT AGAIN

[danberger]

Jerry:
You may or may not remember I had a story in the L.A. Times a few years back about MADD closing its Napa Valley chapter for lack of business, and the DUI unit of the Sheriff's Dept. being disbanded for lack of arrests. Lately, DUI stops have been increased in the Napa Valley, but arrests/citations/convictions are still the same: very, very low.
The reason for my story in the Times: 60 Minutes called me to get help in researching an expose on drunk driving in the Napa Valley. The producer of the proposed episode was at a brick wall. No story, she said. Eventually, 60 Minutes killed the piece.
