Marijuana Inc Media Division MarijuanaInc.TV Goes Coastal To The Silver Tour Show In Florida And Announces Participation In The Newest Industry B2B Event
LAS VEGAS, May 3, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- MARIJUANA, INC. (HEMP.PK) or (OTC: HEMP) is pleased to announce that MarijuanaInc.TV filmed Robert Platshorn' s Silver Tour Show on May 2 in Delray Beach, Florida. The Silver Tour was founded by Robert Platshorn, who at age 69 is dedicated to enlightening seniors about the benefits of medical marijuana. Marijuana, he says, can alleviate maladies common to the elderly, and even replace sleeping pills with unwanted side effects.
The January, 2012 Silver Tour show, hosted in a Boyton Beach, Florida, synagogue resulted in 400 calls to state lawmakers from attendees, Platshorn said. While many young people are in favor of legalization of medicinal cannabis, seniors offer a special advantage to the cause. Platshorn says "Seniors are an active political force; seniors vote, seniors have time to contact their representatives." Platshorn talks to seniors about how medical marijuana can help alleviate pain, insomnia, Multiple Sclerosis, Crohn's disease and other ailments. Doctors, nurses, lawyers and other advocates of legalizing marijuana also speak.
"Nobody speaks to seniors. When Proposition 19 was defeated in California, I looked at the exit polls I saw that seniors voted 65 percent against. That's my generation. We invented marijuana as its known today. I mean, we were Woodstock," Platshorn told CNN Money.
With the coverage of the Silver Tour event in Florida, MarijuanaInc.TV culminated coast to coast coverage of pertinent events in the medical marijuana and hemp realm, with segment producer having extensively covered the 4/20 counter-culture holiday weekend in Oakland, CA then immediately flying to Dallas, TX for the "Hempsters Plant the Seed" movie event.
Company President David Tobias stated, "We want to be the CNN of the industry, covering breaking news and events and getting the public informed and involved. Covering events in three states all across America in one week, puts us well on the road to attaining that goal. I'm especially interested in viewer's reactions to the scoops that Stephanie Bishop was able to get, such as the Julia Butterfly Hill interview".
CEO Bruce Perlowin was upbeat as well, "As our media marketing team is getting fully ramped up, we anticipate substantially increased revenues in numerous areas of this entertainment division of our company. The Connoisseur Kulture show at Barker Hangar in Santa Monica, CA will be the inaugural trade show for MarijuanaInc.TV to Live Stream broadcast from, and really interact with the community, showcasing MarijuanaInc.TV as an up and coming media resource".
The promoters of the CK Show have planned a festive atmosphere featuring the Furthur Bus, wild glass demonstrations featuring Kristian Merwin and D-Wreck, Rat Rod Car Club, Black Kat Kabaret, huge industry party at The Central with headliner Afromassive and a live art battle in the middle of the expo featuring Chris Dyer, Dunkees and Shie Moreno, and to top it off, Snoop Dogg's Executive Branch with the Snoop DJ and Snoop girls.
