This Week In '66 - Annette Buchanan

 

With Lynn Peril

Annette Buchanan was the brave, principled 20-year-old managing editor of the University of Oregon’s campus newspaper. In 1966, she interviewed seven students about their positive experiences with pot and kept their identities anonymous when the story was printed. When the district attorney asked for the students’ names so he could “clean up campus,” she stuck to her journalistic ethics and said no. She also refused to identify her sources when hauled before a grand jury–twice. Perhaps timely in light of yesterday’s star witness at the January 6th hearings, Annette Buchanan’s story was in the news This Week in ‘66.
