[Kzyxtalk] Replacing Media Matters

[David Gurney]

Why wouldn't marijuana be mentioned every day?  It's the second or third
biggest income producer in the County (along with tourism and wine) and one
of the leading causes of arrest.

If KZYX had a news department, they'd have to talk about it every day,
since just about every single day there's some sort of pot bust.  Not to
mention all the other issues surrounding it, such as water diversion,
pesticide poison, medical use issues, etc. etc. &ct.

Just because the heavily entrenched staff of KZYX wants to hunker down in
their Philo bunker doesn't mean there's not a world out there.
