Has the War Against Marijuana been won yet? You’d think victory was pretty darn close according to this Denver Post headline from August 6, 1937:
“COLORADO DEPARTMENT WAGING WINNING FIGHT AGAINST MARIJUANA
New Agency Battles to Destory Narcotic That Leads to Eventual Insanity After Making Beasts of its Victims.”
Of course the discourse of the opponents to Amendment 44 hasn’t changed much from those glory days of reefer madness.
In an age where everyone accuses the press of a bias when it doesn’t report things according to their worldview, looking at how the papers reported on stuff in the pre-Murrow era is refreshing.
I remember seeing some old Posts, also from the 30s, and their tone was incredible. I particularly remember a photo of about 5 or 6 juviniles (they were all under 20 at any rate) who had committed a violent bank robbery who were going to executed and one of the lines in the caption said that they all “deserved” it. It may have been true but I was still taken aback that this was being stated in the context of reporting the news as opposed to commenting on it.
