[Kzyxtalk] Replacing Media Matters

Sat Feb 22 18:38:07 PST 2014

Tim, 

There's actually a sign above Rich Culbertson's desk that says, "Days that marijuana hasn't been mentioned...zero." 

The sign has always offended me. Deeply offended me. I have a 33-year old daughter who was diagnosed with MS when she was 18-years old. That's so young that the CDC's epidemiology charts for MS don't even start until 21-years old -- and there are hardly any patients in the U.S. under 30-years old. 

My daughter is a medical marijuana patient. She juices live bud as well as uses her vaporizer. And she is in remission. She has been in remission for the last four or five years. 

Since 2000, my daughter -- a single mother -- has lived in Denver. She has been a strong advocate for decriminalization in Colorado. 

Marijuana is her medicine. 

I wish marijuana were mentioned more on KZYX. 

I wish William Courtney, M.D. -- the country's top researcher on the endogenous cannabinoid system and phytocannabinoids -- -- had a show on KZYX. 

Even though Dr. Courtney lives in Willits, he has to go all the way to KMUD's studio in Redway to do his show. Why? Why not KZYX? Why can't KZYX take a leeadership position in this area.

Cannabis gets mentioned so often, everyone at the station is sick of the subject. It is a TIRESOME topic, because it comes up so often.

Cannabis is indeed a forbidden topic at the station.
