10/22/2016 informative and worth the watch, but not much else. See more 07/04/2016 Very informational and different than most documentaries. See more 06/30/2016 Rolling Papers did a great job of covering the legalization of cannabis in Colorado, and the team did an equally excellent job of covering how it impacted The Denver Post and the news industry. It's always great to hear about Ricardo Baca, one of our own and best journalists. Ricardo, we're expecting more wonderful things from you!
