I won an Emmy tonight!🥰 Endlessly grateful to @abc7davidono for the opportunity to be on this wonderful FACEism team. I was thrilled to be an editor on Good Medicine, a story about fighting injustice from a place of love. Thank you @Supamanhiphop for sharing your story with us.

Andrea Pasinetti was out of town when he got the call that there was a fire in the Pacific Palisades, where his home and three dogs were. As flames surrounded their home and Pasinetti tried to return, he and his wife reached out to CBS News' @JonVigliotti, who was covering the blaze in that area, for help.

Vigliotti and CBS News producer Christian Duran jumped into action — breaking into the burning home to rescue Pasinetti's precious pets: Alma, Archie and Hugo.

"I have never felt that mixture of joy and relief and exhaustion and despair and gratitude towards someone," he told CBS News. "It's the best that humanity has to offer."

In the future, music manager Divya Jethwani hopes more consideration will go into cultural performances: "You put up a person that has the cultural competency and understands the nuances of the culture in that position of power. And then beyond that, that'll serve your casting.”
