Cigarette Industry Seeks Less Anti Smoking Propaganda
The Tobacco Institute president Horace Kornegay urged reduced anti smoking messaging after the new ban on broadcast cigarette ads. He argued health groups mislead the public, citing government reports and a rise in teen smoking rates while defending the industry’s record year and calling for a shift to scientific research over campaigns.
