I read somewhere that one of the network's highest-rated shows is a constantly-repeated and now years old documentary on the rising marijuana industry in California....

Wait, no. That's CNBC, which regularly runs a documentary called "Marijuana Inc."

Not to be confused (as just I did) with MSNBC, which also runs a show called "Al Roker Reporting: Marijuana Inc.," but with Al Roker instead of Trish Regan.

You can see why I would be confused. Imagine if I were high!
