Ad Age: The Truth? Latest Anti-Smoking Effort a Hot Mess...

RTS is a big fan of 
TheTruth.com; but
as Ad Age says, coming 
after celebrities to blame 
them for everybody else's
smoking is a bit far 
fetched in this day and age.
While the cool factor in 
smoking has been promoted 
since the 30's...attacking
actors who smoke today by 
using them in these ads makes 
them out to be uncaring influences.
The suggestion that they lead 
youth to ruin somewhat violates 
these actors' right to privacy 
and free will.

RTS thinks the focus should 
be on the condescending attitude 
of Big Tobacco towards young folks...
now that's worth getting mad 
about...!!! TheTruth.com knows 
how to do that!
