L.A. Unified launches campaign to discourage sexting

Two Los Angeles high school students are hanging out when a friend arrives with gossip: Someone texted a naked picture to a classmate and it was soon forwarded "all over the place."

When one of the students expresses skepticism, another takes her friends on a journey of discovery about "sexting." Educators, an attorney and a police officer lay out the consequences of sexting – public humiliation, loss of educational and job opportunities, possible criminal violations -- and hammer home a message:

Think twice. What you do now matters later.

The scenario is featured in a video to be unveiled Tuesday as part of the Los Angeles Unified School District’s new campaign against sexting.
