If you’re going to quit your job, you may as well go out with a bang.
Overnight, Alaskan reporter Charlo Greene – whose name is pretty appropriate, all things considered – resigned live on air after a segment on marijuana legalisation, revealing herself as the owner of the medical marijuana dispensary Alaskan Cannabis Club.
She later told Alaska Daily News that she resigned to avoid any conflict of interest with her job as a reporter, and so she could use all her energy to “draw attention” to an upcoming ballot in favour of medical marijuana.
“If I offended anyone, I apologize, but I’m not sorry for the choice that I made,” she said.
