The Article: Don’t just legalize marijuana, free prior offenders by Matthew Fleischer in The LA Times.
The Text: With pot now legally for sale in Colorado, and Washington state gearing up to follow suit, marijuana legalization activists across the country are pushing hard to replicate these political successes in other states. Voters in Massachusetts could ratify legalized marijuana as early as 2016.
This is undoubtedly a sign of progress. Our nation has capriciously squandered far too many precious national resources combating a green weed that makes people feel good.
As welcome as a more widespread regulated marijuana industry would be, however, one thing that no one seems to be considering is what to do with those already convicted of marijuana crimes.

The Article: So MTV reduces teen pregnancy. Why are we surprised? by Kat Keene Hogue in The Guardian.
The Text: In our polarized age, reality television may be the only thing all of America agrees on: it’s disgusting, fake, bottom-dwelling, voyeuristic trash that rots our minds and brainwashes our kids.
But, despite the hypocrisy, most of America tunes in. For a tenth of the cost of a network drama, reality TV’s repetitive formulas serve horror, humor, and overwrought emotion to tens of millions.
Well, exciting news: we can all feel a little less remorseful about our guilty pleasure. It turns out reality TV can accelerate cultural progress – not just cultural decay.
