This will just take a minute.
I often mention how the "Mainstream Media" scrapes any realistic references to "marijuana" out of its presentations, save for a few mentions here and there, either as negative propaganda bits, or "human interests" asides.
I am experimenting with Twitter (gasp!) and have quickly found a great new source of cannabis news and came across this PSA/commercial funded by NORML. I am unsure of how old this is, but I have just seen it.
I don't watch TV so I have no idea if this has yet been broadcast, but I cannot imagine that it has.
On the flip.
It's a minute long; those with HD ability, make sure to watch that version.

I applaud the rather forceful tone some of the people are using: the older lady in the blue jacket really sounds pissed: "We're not going to give up"
They have tried to represent a wide cross-section of the pot smoking demographic, which includes just about any sub-group you can mention.
And they address it directly to politicians and Obama himself :"We will support you".
I think this is outstanding and would love to see it on television: If it's not on tv in America, it's not real.
