The foul-mouthed TV reporter who quit her job live on air has released a new video explaining why she quit and why people should vote for marijuana legalization in Alaska.

KTVA reporter Charlo Greene was reporting live on the medical marijuana collective the Alaska Cannabis Club on Sunday when she abruptly stopped, used an expletive, and quit. The camera went back to the anchor who looked thoroughly confused as she looked down at her scripts. Despite initially struggling for words, the anchor managed to apologize and move on to the next story.

On Monday, Greene posted a video explaining her decision to quit, and said she is dedicating her time to fighting for legalization of marijuana.

"If responsible adults should be allowed to choose how they like to drink, why differentiate my toke from your beer?" Greene said. "Advocating for freedom and fairness should be everyone's duty, I'm making it my life's work."

She is encouraging everyone to share their marijuana story with friends and family to "show them that we smokers are responsible, contributing members to society."

Greene is hoping to persuade people to vote Yes on ballot measure 2 on Nov. 4. If the measure is approved, people 21 and older will be allowed to possess up to one ounce of marijuana and up to six plants. In addition, the sale and possession of marijuana paraphernalia would become legal.

It appears there would be financial benefits for Greene and her new company if the measure is approved.

According to The Associated Press, Charlene Egbe registered the business name on April 20. In the video, Greene said Egbe is her real name.

Greene has also started an Indiegogo campaign for marijuana reform.

"As a member of the media, I've seen the dirty campaign tricks and lies that prohibitionists have been using over the past several months to sway Alaskan voters firsthand," she writes on the campaign page. "Here's the sad thing: it's working. Polling shows the majority of Alaskans, who were in favour of the initiative at the start of the year, are now against it."

Greene goes on to say she is the only person in Alaska who can take on this issue. In less than a day, the campaign far surpassed its goal of raising $5,000. The money will be used for informational materials such as pamphlets and advertising.

KTVA news director Bert Rudman delivered a statement Monday evening apologizing to viewers for Greene's language and her personal stake in an issue she was reporting.
