Denver Post hires pot editor, seeks marijuana critic

The Denver Post, newspaper of record in the Mile High City, has hired a pot editor and is looking for a marijuana critic.

A week after the paper ran an ad seeking an editor for a marijuana website, the paper hired former entertainment editor Ricardo Baca. Baca said he wants to hire a critic to evaluate products on the soon-to-be-legal market. Colorado voters approved legalizing the sale, possession and growing of cannabis, to take effect Jan. 1.
