LOS ANGELES, Oct. 17, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Cannabis Planet, the educational television program about the benefits of marijuana, brings their message of food, fuel, fiber and medicine into millions of TV households weekly across the U.S. The thirty-minute program airs every weekend in Prime Time on independent stations across the country. (Listings available at CannabisPlanet.com.)

Newscaster Pat Finerty discusses CTE brain injury in the NFL.

Former NFL offensive lineman Eben Britton discusses the day to day rigors of the NFL and how herbal medicine was beneficial to his overall health. Harvard's Dr. Lester Grinspoon is also featured discussing CTE, cannabis and the NFL. "Cannabis is a neuro-protectant and the NFL should study it," stated Dr. Grinspoon.

Weekly features include Cannabis cooking with Chef Mike Delao, Hemp Facts with newscaster Pat Finerty and the "Higher Perspective", an esoteric look at the plant from comedian Ngaio Bealum and a musical guest. The show airs every Saturday and Sunday at 7:00 p.m. in Los Angeles and every Sunday at 11:00 a.m. on the east coast.

Cannabis Planet intended to broadcast on both AT&T/DIRECTV and DISH Network, yet both networks refused to air the programming. The new distribution strategy for the show is to broadcast on major independent, full-power transmission stations around the country whose signals become "must-carry" to all television services within each specific market. Therefore, all TV households are able to receive the broadcast signal and watch the program, including DISH & AT&T/DIRECTV subscribers.

Banned by the major satellite services, Cannabis Planet will still reach their viewership by broadcasting on independent stations each week in Los Angeles (KJLA), Chicago (WOCK), Philadelphia (WACP), Washington D.C. (WMDE), & Palm Beach (WHDT). The program is also available online at www.CannabisPlanet.com.

Cannabis Planet wanted to also broadcast on a New York station and on KHSV in Las Vegas (where cannabis is legal medicinally and recreationally) and KOFY in San Francisco, yet all three stations refused to air the programming, claiming it was against their network policies.
