With a 'Fuck It,' TV Reporter Quits On-Air To Pursue Dream of Legalizing Marijuana

She's mad as hell, and she's not going to take this anymore.

Last night this happened:

That's Charlo Greene of Anchorage's KTVA-TV—sorry, formerly of Anchorage's KTVA-TV—wrapping up a report on the Alaska Cannabis Club by revealing that she is the CEO of the organization and declaring that she'll "be dedicating all my energy toward fighting for freedom and fairness, which begins with legalizing marijuana here in Alaska. And as for this job, not that I have a choice, but fuck it, I quit." Then we cut to the surprised anchor.

I wish Greene best of luck in her new career, especially since I don't think she'll be able to fall back on local news if it doesn't work out.
