It’s rare that I have the opportunity to commend the media on something really well done, but this is definitely one of those occasions.
Yesterday was Chicago’s 37th Annual Gay Pride Parade, which ABC not only broadcast last night, but has also made available at their website as part of their coverage, which is prominently linked from their front page. Well done, ABC. It’s Chicago’s second-largest parade of the year (not to mention one of the most fun events of the year, which is really saying something considering Blues Fest, Jazz Fest, the St. Patrick’s Day Parade, and the tons of other great annual events in Chicago), and they really gave it the coverage it deserves.
For anyone who’s a Star Trek fan, you might be interested in watching the first video segment, during which George Takei, who served as Grand Marshal, is interviewed.
