Review of My Family, Your Family, Our Family


An interesting piece that could be used just about any time that same-sex issues come up in the headlines. It shares the story of a comic book created to share the story of "non-traditional" and "traditional" family structures with children of all backgrounds.

The piece is quick and efficient. Its easy to wish that more time could be spent with the families and comic authors as a way to "illustrate" the story's characters, but brevity wins out here. Making the piece shorter makes it more useful to more stations. It was the right choice.

The production technique leaves a bit to be desired from time to time (including some over modulated micing on the reporter). Given the interest level of the content, it's easy to overlook these small flaws.
