[{"type":"text","content":"\n\n DENVER, Nov. 14, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Bang Holdings Corp. (OTCQB:BXNG), through its wholly owned subsidiary, Bang Digital Media - a brand manager, digital content provider, and influencer-based marketer to the cannabis industry, today announced it believes that laws legalizing recreational cannabis use in California, Massachusetts, Maine and Nevada, along with medical marijuana initiatives passed in Montana, Florida, Arkansas, and North Dakota are game changers for their business, and that of their clients. \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Bang Digital Media to Monetize Its Platform in 2017\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n A photo accompanying this announcement is available at http://www.globenewswire.com/NewsRoom/AttachmentNg/7bf08d80-06f6-4955-a4b1-f645d149760a. “The legalization of recreational and medical cannabis in already tourist-friendly states like California and Nevada unlocks massive potential for industry growth,” said Bang Holdings CEO, Steve Berke. “California alone represents the sixth biggest economy — not just in the United States — but in the world.

That’s where Bang Digital Media will step in. “Even with the majority of Americans now saying they support cannabis legalization, social media platforms like Facebook and Twitter and advertising providers such as Google still have a ban on cannabis-related advertising,” Berke said, adding that “Bang has honed the perfect mix of technical prowess and creative aptitude necessary to generate successful marketing campaigns for our brands and clients.” Bang isn’t just setting their sights on t...
