Montana PBS Investigates The Science Of Cannabis, Medical Marijuana

WATCH: Montana PBS Clears The Smoke On Medical Marijuana

Medical marijuana has seen an erratic history of late: An appeals court in Michigan recently restricted access to medical marijuana there; Montana voters legalized medical marijuana in 2004 but have also had access stymied; Colorado voters, meanwhile, may see an all-out legalization ballot initiative in November; Others speculate Massachusetts may seek to legalize the drug as well.

Given the diversity of opinions on legalization and speculation about marijuana's efficacy as a medicine, we were particularly interested to see Montana PBS's hour-long documentary 'Clearing the Smoke: The Science of Cannabis.' Though the video originally premiered in February, as the Colorado Independent points out, smart policy is built on sound information.
