News from California's southern federal district that advertising the dispensing of medical marijuana is a federal crime and that all media are targets. Noting that radio and television ads crossed the line into living rooms with children present, the print media has survived in otherwise tough times with this new source of ad revenue. (The SN&R created a slick medical marijuana pullout that approached 40% the total weight of the whole SN&R package.) If the newfound zeal of the U.S. Department of Justice bothers your feelings of state's rights or freedom of speech or other civility, then let the White House know, give them an earfull, their phone number is 202-456-1111.
