Today, in both the print and online versions of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, appears an article about medical marijuana in Pennsylvania written by Mackenzie Carpenter. The article is objective, vis-a-vis Dr. Neil Capretto’s astonishingly misinforming smear that also appeared in the Post-Gazette a few weeks ago. We at Pittsburgh NORML urge everyone to take the time to write a letter to the editor asking for more honest coverage about this topic.
Unfortunately, Ms. Carpenter mistakenly wrote that our meetings take place at Abay (an Ethiopian restaurant) instead of Ava. She also neglected to use the terms HB 1393 and SB 1350 in the article. Hopefully with future coverage of this subject we can get more exposure for the actual bills proposed in our state legislature, as well as more exposure for our Pgh NORML group.
Take a look at the article online by clicking on this link, or else pick up a print copy of today’s Pgh Post-Gazette. Thanks for your support and also look for news concerning our autumn fundraiser!
