A student journalist says she wants to write about medical marijuana for her Florida high school's magazine. But staff and other students would rather she didn't. Abbey Laine, a reporter for the Bagpipe at Lakeland High School, said her article would have outlined medical marijuana issues and how they affect students. She wanted to write about it to help students understand a proposed state constitutional amendment that would legalize some medicinal uses of the drug. "I came to my journalism teacher about it and gave (the idea) to her, of course, and she reviewed it," said Laine, a senior. "She immediately came down with the answer of no." - Student Press Law Center
