Can we say William Randolph Hearst? He also controlled the liberal media and used it as a weapon.

Hearst was instrumental in outlawing hemp.

He owned large forests for paper pulp. He was the primary source of newsprint for most of the newspaper industry.

Hemp biomass grew faster and made better paper than wood.

Couldn’t have that, thus was born “Reefer Madness.”
