Rick Simpson Oil (RSO) in Sangamon County, Illinois: The Complete Guide by OilWell Cannabis

Sangamon County deserves honest cannabis education. Whether you’re a cancer patient in Springfield exploring supportive care options, a veteran near Chatham managing PTSD, or a chronic pain sufferer in Rochester who’s tired of prescription cycles that don’t work, you need real information—not hype. That’s why we’re here.

We are OilWell Cannabis, a Houston-based company with deep roots in the borderlands of McAllen, Texas, and a mission to make cannabinoid medicine accessible, transparent, and grounded in actual science. Our story began with a paralyzed dog named Bentley who got up and walked again when conventional medicine had given up. That moment taught us that cannabinoids aren’t magic—they’re molecules with specific pharmacology that can change lives when formulated with precision and respect for the evidence.

This guide is for Sangamon County. It is not a sales pitch. It is a complete, evidence-weighted, open-source resource that explains what Rick Simpson Oil actually is, how our formulas diverge from the traditional approach, and how you can access them legally whether you’re in Springfield, Sherman, Pawnee, or anywhere else in central Illinois.

Who We Are and Why We Care About Sangamon County

Sangamon County isn’t just any market to us. We see the same patterns here that we saw in Houston’s Texas Medical Center—patients facing devastating diagnoses, families searching for options after conventional treatments fall short, and a community hungry for honest information about what cannabis can and cannot do. Your proximity to major medical institutions like Memorial Medical Center and HSHS St. John’s Hospital means you have access to excellent conventional care, but that doesn’t mean every problem has a conventional solution.

We operate from Montrose in Houston, but we ship nationwide—including to every zip code in Sangamon County. Same-day delivery isn’t available here (yet), but our nationwide shipping gets product to your door within 2-3 business days with full documentation, third-party lab testing, and the same quality control that earned us a near-5.0 Google rating and seven ABC13 news features over four years.

Our founder, Colin Valencia, grew up in McAllen, Texas—one of the most economically challenged and dangerous border regions in America. He learned cannabis not in a boardroom, but by keeping his dog Bentley alive for ten years after veterinary medicine had given up. He learned pharmaceutical dependence personally, fighting PTSD and benzodiazepine addiction cold turkey using the same cannabinoid formulations we now offer you. He learned the law the hard way, with a personal marijuana conviction that informs every decision we make about compliance and transparency.

When ABC13 Houston—America’s fourth-largest city’s number-one news source—needed to explain Delta-8 THC, COVID community health leadership, or the implications of President Biden’s marijuana pardons, they called Colin. Not because we’re the biggest company, but because we’ve earned the reputation for radical honesty and evidence-based education.

What is Rick Simpson Oil (RSO) Really?

Before you consider any RSO product, you need to understand what the term actually means—and what most people selling “RSO” today won’t tell you.

Rick Simpson was not a doctor. He was a power engineer from Nova Scotia who was failed by conventional medicine after a 1997 workplace injury left him with persistent tinnitus and post-concussion symptoms. When his doctor refused to consider cannabis, Simpson learned about a 1974 NIH-funded study at the Medical College of Virginia that showed THC could slow tumor growth in mice. That study—never replicated in humans—became his inspiration.

In 2003, Simpson claimed that applying concentrated cannabis oil to three bumps on his arm (diagnosed as basal cell carcinoma) caused them to disappear in four days. There was no independent medical verification, no biopsy confirmation, no clinical documentation. This was personal testimony, not medical evidence—but it became the origin story of Rick Simpson Oil.

After that experience, Simpson began giving oil away for free to cancer patients and others in his community, claiming to help with everything from diabetes to depression. His 2005 documentary Run From The Cure spread his story globally. He was raided by Canadian police in 2005 and 2009, charged with cultivation and trafficking, and eventually fled to Europe. In 2012, he published Phoenix Tears, maintaining until today that RSO can cure cancer and that pharmaceutical companies are suppressing this knowledge .

What Simpson Got Right vs. What He Overstated

What he got right: Simpson drew attention to cannabinoids as serious biomedical research when the world was ignoring them. He helped create the political conditions for the legal cannabis industry. The term “RSO” remains the most recognized name for full-spectrum cannabis extract.

What he overstated: No human clinical trial has ever demonstrated that RSO cures cancer. The National Cancer Institute acknowledges cannabinoid anticancer research in preclinical models but does not endorse cannabis as a cancer treatment. The FDA has not approved any cannabis plant product for cancer. Health Canada has never approved RSO for cancer .

The real risk: Encouraging cancer patients to use RSO instead of proven therapies (surgery, radiation, chemotherapy, immunotherapy) can cause genuine harm through delayed or foregone treatment. This is documented in alternative medicine literature and is why we state clearly: RSO is not a substitute for professional medical care. If you’re at Memorial Medical Center or St. John’s receiving oncology treatment, RSO may be a supportive adjunct—but only with your oncologist’s knowledge and oversight.

The Traditional RSO Protocol: 60 Grams in 90 Days

Simpson’s dosing protocol was specific and aggressive:

  • Week 1: Half a grain of rice-sized dose (10-15mg) three times daily
  • Weeks 2-5: Double every four days until reaching 1 gram per day
  • Weeks 5-12: Maintain 1 gram daily in three divided doses
  • Total: 60 grams over ~90 days

The problems with this protocol:

  • No clinical validation. Zero published trials, zero dose-finding studies, zero pharmacokinetic modeling.
  • Extremely high THC exposure. At peak dosing (1 gram of 60-90% THC oil), patients consumed 600-900mg of delta-9 THC daily—30-45 times the typical FDA-approved dronabinol dose.
  • Real risks. At those doses, documented adverse effects include severe intoxication, anxiety, panic, tachycardia, hypotension, and cannabis use disorder [1][13][14][15].
  • Crude, unstandardized material. Every batch was different. No lab testing, no potency verification, no contaminant screening. Residual naphtha or isopropyl alcohol was a real risk .

OilWell’s approach is fundamentally different. Our sublingual oil contains only 90mg total delta-9 THC in the entire 30mL bottle—far below Simpson’s daily peak dose. We provide measured, lab-tested precision rather than guesswork.

Why Our Formulas Diverge from Traditional RSO

We respect Simpson’s original vision, but we’ve evolved it based on evidence, safety, and accessibility. Here are the five deliberate divergences that define OilWell RSO:

1. Multi-Cannabinoid Approach (Not Just THC)

Traditional RSO used whatever single strain was available—usually 60-90% delta-9 THC with random minor cannabinoids at natural ratios. Our sublingual formula includes seven defined cannabinoids at specific ratios:

  • CBD: 4,500mg — The most evidence-developed non-psychoactive cannabinoid, with strong human data for seizure disorders and promising signals for anxiety and pain [1][3][4]
  • CBG: 3,000mg — A promising minor cannabinoid with neuroprotective potential and anti-inflammatory properties, though human trials are still emerging [7][8]
  • Delta-8 THC: 6,000mg — A psychoactive THC analogue with antiemetic properties and pain potential, though less clinically characterized than delta-9 [9]-[11]
  • THCa: 1,500mg — The non-psychoactive precursor to THC, preserved in its acidic form for patient-controlled activation [12]
  • Delta-9 THC: 90mg — A deliberately low dose providing therapeutic potential without the extreme psychoactivity of traditional RSO [13]-[15]
  • CBN: 750mg — Included for sleep architecture support, though clinical evidence remains weak [16][17]
  • CBC: 750mg — An emerging cannabinoid with neurogenesis potential, still in preclinical stages [18][19]

Total: 16,590mg cannabinoids at 553mg/mL

This diversity reflects the entourage-effect hypothesis—that cannabinoids work synergistically—while acknowledging that robust clinical proof of whole-formula synergy remains limited [20][29].

2. Terpene Preservation (Not Destroyed by Heat)

Traditional RSO’s high-heat solvent evaporation destroyed all terpenes. Our formulas include 5% live terpenes with a defined seven-terpene profile:

  • Limonene (citrus-bright) — Potential mood support and anxiolytic effects [21]
  • Myrcene — Often associated with relaxation, though human proof is limited [23]
  • Caryophyllene (β-caryophyllene) — A selective CB2 receptor agonist with anti-inflammatory potential [24]
  • Pinene (forest-fresh) — Possible neuroprotective effects, but clinical data is sparse [25]
  • Linalool (floral, lavender) — Calming properties supported by preclinical research [26]
  • Humulene (earthy, woody) — Anti-inflammatory potential via preclinical studies [27]
  • Terpinolene (piney, fruity) — Least clinically characterized but biologically interesting [28]

These terpenes make the product experience richer—aromatic, flavorful, and potentially more effective through subtle pharmacological interactions.

3. THCa as a Separate Ingredient (Patient-Controlled Potency)

This is our most significant innovation. Traditional RSO was always fully decarboxylated—everyone got high, whether they wanted to or not.

Our sublingual formula contains 1,500mg of THCa in its raw, non-psychoactive form. You decide:

  • Raw (no heat): Use it sublingually for a functional, non-psychoactive anti-inflammatory. Perfect for daytime use in Sangamon County—whether you’re working at the State Capitol, farming near Pleasant Plains, or caring for family in Springfield. Zero impairment. THCa works via COX-2 inhibition and PPARγ agonism [12].

  • Fully activated (home decarboxylation): Heat the oil at 260°F for 45-60 minutes. This converts 1,500mg THCa → ~1,315mg delta-9 THC. Combined with the existing 90mg delta-9 THC, you get ~1,405mg total delta-9 THC—full psychoactive potency comparable to traditional illegal RSO, but created legally in your own kitchen.

  • Partial activation: Transfer a portion to a separate container and decarb only what you need, preserving the rest raw.

  • Vape (instant activation): Our vape cartridge auto-decarboxylates at 400-450°F, delivering freshly activated cannabinoids with 1-2 minute onset.

Sangamon County relevance: If you work for the state government, drive for a living, or need to remain functional during the day, the raw option keeps you clear-headed. If you’re dealing with severe pain at night, activation provides therapeutic potency. One product, your choice.

4. Reduced Delta-9 THC Dominance (Safety-First Design)

Simpson’s oil was 60-90% delta-9 THC. Our formula contains only 90mg total delta-9 THC in the entire bottle—distributing therapeutic potential across multiple cannabinoids rather than relying on extreme THC doses.

This dramatically reduces risks of anxiety, panic, tachycardia, and cannabis use disorder that accompany high-dose THC [1][15]. For Sangamon County residents concerned about mental health impacts or who have experienced THC-induced anxiety, this is a safer entry point.

5. Two Product Formats (Sublingual and Vape)

Simpson had one crude format. We offer two precision-engineered options:

RSO Sublingual Oil — $129.99

  • 30mL bottle (553mg/mL)
  • Graduated dropper (0.1mL increments)
  • Onset: 15-45 minutes
  • Duration: 4-6 hours
  • Bioavailability: 13-19%
  • ~40-60 doses per bottle
  • Best for: sustained relief, precise dosing, daytime non-psychoactive use (raw), nighttime full-potency use (decarbed)

RSO Vape Cartridge — $49.99

  • 1g cartridge
  • 510-thread universal battery compatibility
  • Onset: 1-2 minutes
  • Duration: 2-4 hours
  • Bioavailability: 10-35%
  • Best for: fast relief (breakthrough pain, nausea, panic attacks), portability, discreet use

Which format for Sangamon County living?

  • Springfield commuter dealing with rush-hour anxiety? Vape for immediate relief.
  • Farmer near New Berlin managing chronic back pain through a full day? Raw sublingual in the morning, decarbed sublingual at night.
  • Cancer patient in Springfield needing sleep during treatment? Sublingual before bed for 6-hour duration.

The Science Behind Every Ingredient

We don’t hide behind “proprietary blends.” Every cannabinoid and terpene in our formula has a documented evidence profile. Here’s what the research actually says:

CBD (4,500mg): The Evidence Anchor

  • Strongest human evidence: Rare epilepsies (Epidiolex FDA approval) [1][2]
  • Anxiety: 2024 meta-analysis of 316 participants shows significant anxiolytic signal, but authors stress limited clinical samples need expansion [3]
  • Pain: 2024 systematic review calls literature “promising but heterogeneous” with trial quality limiting confidence [4]
  • Sleep: 2023 review finds “methodologically weak” studies with few objective sleep assessments [5]
  • Safety: 2023 meta-analysis identifies real signal for liver enzyme elevation and possible drug-induced liver injury, especially relevant for concentrated oral products and polypharmacy settings [6]
  • Bottom line for Sangamon County: CBD is the most evidence-developed non-psychoactive cannabinoid, but strong evidence is concentrated in specific indications, not broad wellness claims

CBG (3,000mg): The Neuroprotective Promise

  • Pharmacology: Biosynthetic precursor to major cannabinoids; interacts with CB receptors, alpha-2 adrenoceptors, and 5-HT1A signaling [7]
  • Potential: Neurologic disorders, inflammatory bowel disease, antibacterial activity [7][8]
  • Caution: Sold commercially while evidence base remains thin; review authors note claims outrun science [7]
  • Bottom line for Sangamon County: Promising for neurodegeneration (think Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s) but still preclinical

Delta-8 THC (6,000mg): The Functional Psychoactive

  • Pharmacology: Partial CB1 agonist, less potent than delta-9 THC but still psychoactive [9]
  • Antiemetic: Stronger anti-nausea evidence than delta-9 in some animal models [9]
  • Safety: 2023 scoping review notes adverse consequences and emphasizes regulatory/product-quality concerns [10]
  • Manufacturing: Greater stability than delta-9, but synthesis byproducts matter [11]
  • Bottom line for Sangamon County: Real therapeutic potential but requires quality control; not “mild THC”—it’s pharmacologically active

THCa (1,500mg): The Legal Innovation

  • Chemistry: Acidic precursor to THC; decarboxylates to delta-9 THC at 260°F [12]
  • Non-psychoactive: No intoxication in raw form; works via COX-2 inhibition and PPARγ agonism [12]
  • Conversion: 1mg THCa = 0.877mg delta-9 THC after heating
  • Bottom line for Sangamon County: This is the molecule that makes legal, high-potency RSO possible. Your control over activation means you can use it raw during the day (no impairment) or decarb at night (full potency).

Delta-9 THC (90mg): The Low-Dose Backbone

  • Institutional support: NCCIH identifies relevance for chemo nausea, HIV/AIDS appetite, MS symptoms [1]
  • Pain: 2022 systematic review shows short-term benefit but increases dizziness, sedation, nausea [13]
  • Mental health risk: 2025 review finds consistent unfavorable associations with psychosis/schizophrenia and cannabis use disorder at high concentrations [15]
  • Bottom line for Sangamon County: We include it at therapeutic but non-intoxicating levels; if you want more, decarb the THCa

CBN (750mg): The Sleep Molecule (with Caveats)

  • Marketing vs. evidence: Widely sold as “the sleep cannabinoid,” but 2021 review of 99 human studies found zero clinical trials using validated sleep measures [16]
  • 2024 update: Cannabis sleep literature still doesn’t match real-world use; need for better trials remains [17]
  • Our inclusion: Based on plausible mechanisms and user reports, but we don’t overstate the science
  • Bottom line for Sangamon County: May help sleep architecture, but evidence is weaker than marketing suggests; we include it at the dosage level (25-50mg per mL) investigated in current literature

CBC (750mg): The Emerging Neurogenesis Cannabinoid

  • Pharmacology: Distinct from CBD/THC; antinociceptive, antibacterial, anti-seizure potential [18]
  • Research: 2024 review highlights anti-inflammatory and neurobiological relevance, but notes over-the-counter products are already sold despite little clinical evidence [18][19]
  • Bottom line for Sangamon County: For neurogenesis and brain health—relevant to conditions like dementia—but still experimental

Terpenes: More Than Aroma

Our 5% live terpene profile isn’t just for smell—it’s for potential synergy:

  • Limonene: Mood support, anxiolytic potential [21]
  • Myrcene: Relaxation (human proof limited) [23]
  • Caryophyllene: Direct CB2 activation for anti-inflammatory effects [24]
  • Pinene: Possible memory/cognition support [25]
  • Linalool: Calming, stress relief [26]
  • Humulene: Anti-inflammatory [27]
  • Terpinolene: Complex sensory profile, least studied but biologically interesting [28]

Important caveat: While the “entourage effect” is plausible and worth studying, robust human clinical proof remains limited [20][29]. We include terpenes because they’re part of the whole plant experience, not because we can make definitive therapeutic claims.

How to Use OilWell RSO in Sangamon County

Condition-Specific Contexts (with Honest Evidence Framing)

Cancer Supportive Care (for patients at Memorial, St. John’s, or elsewhere)

  • Pre-chemo: 0.5-1.0mL sublingual 1 hour before treatment for nausea prevention (delta-8’s antiemetic properties)
  • Breakthrough nausea: 2-3 vape puffs (1-2 minute onset)
  • Sleep during treatment: 1.0-2.0mL sublingual before bed (delivers 25-50mg CBN)
  • Critical: Coordinate with your oncologist. RSO is supportive, not curative. Do not delay proven treatments

Chronic Pain (fibromyalgia, arthritis, neuropathy)

  • Daytime: 0.3-0.5mL raw sublingual for anti-inflammatory effects without impairment
  • Nighttime: 0.5-1.0mL decarbed sublingual for combined pain relief and sleep support
  • Breakthrough: Vape as needed
  • Evidence: CBD and delta-9 THC show pain signals; caryophyllene’s CB2 activation adds anti-inflammatory pathway [4][13][24]

Sleep Disorders

  • Before bed: 1.0-2.0mL sublingual
  • At 2.0mL = 50mg CBN (the dosage investigated in recent sleep literature)
  • Evidence: CBN sleep claims are weaker than marketed, but plausible at these doses [16][17]

Anxiety & PTSD (especially for veterans)

  • Daytime: 0.3mL raw sublingual (CBD + CBG + limonene for anxiolytic effects)
  • Nighttime: 1.0mL sublingual (full profile including CBN)
  • Our Asshole Peach product is particularly favored by veterans for PTSD—RSO is the foundation
  • Evidence: CBD meta-analysis shows anxiolytic signal; CBG pharmacology supports anxiety pathways [3][7][8]

General Titration Principle: Start Low, Go Slow

  • Beginner: 0.25-0.5mL sublingual
  • Assess: Wait 2-3 hours before increasing
  • Individual factors: Body weight, metabolism, tolerance, concurrent medications all matter
  • Sangamon County context: If you’re new to cannabinoids and have concerns about impairment, start with raw sublingual during a weekend when you don’t need to drive

Patient-Controlled Potency: Three Options for Sangamon County Lifestyles

  1. Daytime Professional (no impairment)

    • Use raw sublingual
    • Dose: 0.3-0.5mL in morning
    • Good for: State workers, healthcare professionals, drivers, parents
  2. Evening Therapeutic (maximum relief)

    • Decarb 1.0mL at 260°F for 60 minutes
    • Dose before bed
    • Good for: Severe pain, insomnia, cancer patients needing nighttime support
  3. Acute Breakthrough (fast relief)

    • Use vape cartridge
    • 2-3 puffs as needed
    • Good for: Sudden pain flares, panic attacks, nausea episodes

Is This Legal in Sangamon County, Illinois?

Federal Framework (2018 Farm Bill)

Our products are legal under the 2018 Farm Bill because they contain less than 0.3% delta-9 THC by dry weight. Our 30mL sublingual oil contains only 90mg total delta-9 THC—well below the limit. All cannabinoids are hemp-derived.

Illinois State Law

Illinois legalized recreational cannabis in 2020, but the market is heavily regulated and dominated by state-licensed dispensaries. However, hemp-derived products like ours remain legal under federal law and can be shipped directly to your home in Sangamon County without a medical card. You must be 21+ to purchase.

Important: Illinois law focuses on delta-9 THC content at point of sale. Our product meets this standard. However, if you decarboxylate THCa at home, you are converting it to delta-9 THC. This is legal for personal use under Illinois law (you’re allowed to possess and use cannabis), but understand that the converted product will contain higher delta-9 THC levels. We provide the conversion chemistry; you accept responsibility for compliance.

Drug Testing Implications

Honest warning for Sangamon County workers:

  • Raw sublingual (THCa): Should not trigger standard urine tests (which look for delta-9 THC metabolites)
  • Decarbed sublingual or vape: WILL trigger positive drug tests
  • Delta-8 THC: Most tests cannot distinguish from delta-9; will trigger positive

If you work for Sangamon County government, state agencies, or any employer with zero-tolerance policies, use raw form only or discuss with HR before using any product.

Safety Profile: What Sangamon County Residents Need to Know

Common Side Effects

  • Delta-8/Delta-9 THC: Dizziness, sedation, dry mouth, increased appetite, anxiety at high doses [1][9][13]
  • CBD: Diarrhea, sleepiness, appetite changes, liver enzyme elevation (monitor if you have liver disease or take multiple meds) [6]
  • CBN/CBC/CBG: Limited human safety data; generally well-tolerated but individual responses vary

Contraindications

  • Do not operate vehicles or machinery while using psychoactive formats
  • Pregnancy/Nursing: Not recommended (NIH cites concerns) [1]
  • Liver disease: Monitor closely due to CBD’s liver effects [6]
  • Polypharmacy: CBD interacts with many medications via CYP450 enzymes

Media Recognition: Why ABC13 Houston Trusts Us

Between 2019 and 2023, ABC13 Houston featured Colin Valencia and OilWell Cannabis in seven comprehensive news segments. Five different reporters sought us out. This wasn’t paid advertising—it was editorial judgment that we were the most credible voice in the space.

Key features relevant to Sangamon County:

2019: “I’m not trying to sell people snake oil. I’m not trying to sell people hope, but there’s enough research out there that people just need to know and try and have the best possible version to base their opinions off of to give it a fair shot as to whether it’s right or wrong for them.”

2021: When Delta-8 became a $50 million Texas market overnight, Steve Campion asked Colin, “Why would someone want to smoke that?” Colin’s answer: “I don’t give a sh** if it’s wrong to say you’ll get high off it. Maybe you want to get high.” That uncensored honesty on mainstream TV is the kind of transparency you won’t find from corporate cannabis brands.

2021: We gave away $35,000 in product (1,000 caviar pre-rolls) to encourage COVID-19 vaccination, coordinating with the City of Houston. No political strings. Just community health.

2021: When Texas banned Delta-8 overnight, we proactively removed all products before enforcement and warned other operators who were unknowingly shipping Schedule I narcotics. We absorbed the revenue loss to act ethically.

2022: When President Biden announced marijuana pardons, ABC13 came to us because Colin has a personal marijuana conviction history. “I would love to see people not get hurt for this anymore.” This isn’t theoretical for us—we’ve lived the consequences of prohibition.

2023: Our most recent feature positioned us at the forefront: “Right now is actually a pretty—like Renaissance—pretty important time that should be enjoyed now.”

For Sangamon County residents evaluating cannabis companies, this media record is independently verified credibility. You can’t buy seven ABC13 features. You earn them by being honest, knowledgeable, and community-focused.

Sangamon County Community Health Context

We understand the specific health landscape in Sangamon County:

Cancer Support: With Memorial Medical Center and St. John’s Hospital serving as regional oncology hubs, many patients are exploring integrative options. Our formulas are designed to complement—not replace—conventional treatment. The free delivery to Texas Medical Center in Houston reflects our commitment to making these products accessible to patients in major medical centers; we bring that same ethos to Sangamon County’s cancer community.

Veteran Community: Sangamon County has a strong veteran presence, including those who served at nearby bases and now deal with PTSD, chronic pain, and opioid dependence. Our Asshole Peach product—particularly favored by veterans—was born from Colin’s own PTSD journey. The Peace Gummies formula helped him quit Xanax cold turkey; the vape version provides acute relief for flashbacks and panic.

Opioid Crisis: Illinois has been impacted by the opioid epidemic, including Sangamon County. Our products offer a potential alternative or adjunct for pain management that doesn’t carry the same addiction risk profile as opioids—but we are honest that cannabinoids carry their own risks, including cannabis use disorder [15].

Agricultural Heritage: Sangamon County’s farming communities understand cultivation. Hemp is a legal crop in Illinois. Our open-source formulas empower farmers who want to understand precise cannabinoid ratios rather than crude extraction.

Final Thought for Sangamon County

Sangamon County residents deserve the same level of cannabis education as patients in Houston’s Texas Medical Center. You deserve to know exactly what’s in your product, what the evidence actually says, and how to use it safely. You deserve access without jumping through medical program hoops. You deserve a company that has earned media recognition through honesty, not hype.

We started this company because a dog got up and walked when he wasn’t supposed to. Because Colin survived PTSD and benzo addiction when pills failed. Because we believe medicine should be accessible, transparent, and rooted in evidence.

If you’re in Springfield, Chatham, Rochester, Sherman, Pawnee, or anywhere else in Sangamon County, we’re here for you. Not with promises of miracles, but with the best possible version of RSO—formulated with precision, published for transparency, and backed by the kind of media credibility you can verify yourself.
