Content: High Times is a New York-based monthly magazine founded in 1974 by Tom Forcade. The publication is devoted to marijuana culture. It is the largest cannabis-related magazine in the world. In 2008 High Times launched a digital edition of the magazine and in early 2010 began publishing the quarterly Medical Marijuana News & Reviews. More to the left than Rolling Stone by far. The only editorial constant is the end of drug prohibition. Or The War on Some Drugs. The tone has gotten totally giddy since President Russel took the DEA apart, and ended the war on some drugs.
High Times has long been influential in the marijuana-using counterculture. Past contributors include Charles Bukowski, William S. Burroughs, Truman Capote, Hunter S. Thompson and Andy Warhol. They frequently publish in the know information, sometimes totally unaware of what they are doing. 
With the normalization of recreational drugs High Times has become less of an advocate and more of a culture rag. They have open advertisements for various source of drugs. Ideas for high vacations, articles on responsible use, and the like. Conservatives still don't like it even if Granny is getting high to ease that arthritis pain.

On the B-13 watch list. Maybe because of the counter culture roots and focus but they get more than their share of the weird and strange. Most of the time they don't even know that have published such a thing. As near as anyone can tell it is totally innocent and not an editorial policy. The magazine is recommended reading for agents.
