BEST RADIO COMMENTARY

Dean Becker, "420 Drug War News

Every weekday at 4:20 p.m., Houston's listener-sponsored community radio station KPFT gives you some news you can use.  Dean Becker wants his pot-smokin' buddies to stay out of jail, and to do that they have to be informed.  Becker monitors the drug war like Fox News monitors the war on terrorism, and he isn't afraid to call a spade a spade.  In his eyes, the war on drugs is a failure and should be stopped immediately.  And he's got no problem getting folks to co-sign that notion.  Some of the nation's "highest"-ranking hemp activists have appeared on his show, including former Dallas Cowboy and president of Texas NORML Mark Stepnoski.
