Chicago may get 'gay-friendly' high school

I watched this story having no idea about whether or not there would be good visual representations, really. I figured that since it was an issue story, it could go either way and it could be difficult to capture appropriate B-roll since the school hadn't already been constructed. I wasn't really surprised to see that the visuals were limited to graphics and to some sporadic B-roll of school-age students and classroom activities, but I was a little disappointed at how visually uninteresting it was. They could have had more footage of students meeting or doing activities as part of a school's GSA, or something, really.
In this case, there was a text version of the story, and though I feel like video can do more to attract the senses and tell stories sometimes, this was not one of those times. The text and a few still photos really told the story better.
In both cases, though, the story was good— but it wasn't meant for a video.
