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
how to do that!
