This is supreme publicity, after the release of 'The Social Network.' Facebook Cofounder Dustin Moskovitz Backs California Pot Legalization While Facebook Blocks Pot Campaign Ads
Just wanted to give you guys this update. Sean Parker (Napster genious, Facebook investor) just donated $100,000 to prop 19. The masthead of Huffington Post is some daaaank ganja. Facebook Cofounders Back California Pot Legalization While Facebook Blocks Pot Campaign Ads
I think it kinda doesn't matter, because they are 2/3 of the founders They kinda still rep facebook ya know? But yeah, if Zukerberg did it will literally be everywhere.
Yeah that's what I'm saying, Parker and Moskovitz might get a brief mention on the news but if Zuckerberg donates it'll be front page news. Just look at his donation to the Newark school system, that got an insane amount of coverage.
A lot of coverage was because that donation was an obvious PR strategy after coverage of his law suits popped up. That and HP is a pretty big news org, and the top of their home page is a double size picture of a few nice sensi buds sooo I'm not sure the prop needs much more publicity, altho more never hurts. (The article just got 500 new comments in the past 5 minutes. Articles don't usually get more than 1500 in 3 days!)
Haha yeah I definitely agree with you on that. I don't see the buds at the top of the page though... am I overlooking something?
True, but Prop 19 is a very controversial issue. For such an influential figure to donate ANY money towards legalization, I guarantee it would be news-worthy.
Imagine if prop 19 was given 100 million dollars. Oh the shit storm from the prohibitionists would be astronomical.
