Journalistic Video - Lis White

I watched a video about a dog in Seattle, Washington that had gone off the trail while walking in a park with his owner and ate some marijuana. 3 hours later he scared his owner because his eyes were glossed over and he was acting weird. She eventually took him to the vet. The Vet said he was stoned. The main concern in the story was that there was pot growing in a park that another pet could eat, or maybe even a child. 

This was a really catchy, funny story. Its not something you hear about every day. Though I think that there could have been a little more detail put into the concern, and what actions were being taken to try to make sure that this did not happen again, if they were being taken. I think that if it were a text only story, the writer would have had to go into more detail. There might be research about whether this has happened in the past, or they would have talked to the police about the actions being taken. I feel like there would have been a light hearted beginning to the story no matter what, but if the story were text only I feel like it would need to take a turn that was more serious so that it would not turn into an editorial.
