Pet owners’ attitudes and behaviours related to smoking and second-hand smoke
Educational campaigns informing pet owners of the risks of SHS exposure for pets could motivate some owners to quit smoking. It could also motivate these owners and non-smoking owners who cohabit with smokers make their homes smoke-free
British American Tobacco ghost-wrote reports on tobacco advertising bans by the International Advertising Association and J J Boddewyn
In 1983 and 1986, the International Advertising Association (IAA) published an original version and then a revision of a report entitled "Tobacco Advertising Bans and Consumption in 16 Countries," which were edited by J J Boddewyn, a marketing professor. The reports concluded that tobacco advertising bans have not been accompanied by any significant reduction in tobacco consumption. Opponents of tobacco advertising restrictions trumpeted the IAA …
Epidemiology of the third wave of tobacco litigation in the United States, 1994–2005
The third wave of tobacco litigation has represented a sea change in efforts to hold the tobacco industry in the United States accountable in American courtrooms. While tobacco manufacturers continue to do their utmost to make these cases difficult to pursue, many of the cases that have gone to trial have met with success in recent years, which suggests that plaintiffs' lawyers are now better equipped to persuade juries of the defendants' culpabi…
Tobacco manufacturers’ defence against plaintiffs’ claims of cancer causation
Despite the vast body of literature showing that cigarette smoking causes cancer, and despite tobacco companies' recent admissions that smoking causes cancer, defendants used numerous arguments in these cases to deny that their products had caused cancer in plaintiffs. The cigarette companies, through their public admissions and courtroom arguments, seem to be saying, "Yes, smoking causes lung cancer, but not in people who sue us
Clearing the airways
The movement to ban smoking in aircraft represents a case study in effective advocacy for smoke-free workplaces. Health advocates, with crucial assistance from flight attendants, used an incremental advocacy process to push for smoking and non-smoking sections on US commercial flights, then for smoking bans on short domestic flights, and finally for completely smoke-free domestic and international flights. Through the course of the battle, advoca…
Preventing 3 Million Premature Deaths and Helping 5 Million Smokers Quit
In August 2002, the Subcommittee on Cessation of the Interagency Committee on Smoking and Health (ICSH) was charged with developing recommendations to substantially increase rates of tobacco cessation in the United States. The subcommittee’s report, A National Action Plan for Tobacco Cessation, outlines 10 recommendations for reducing premature morbidity and mortality by helping millions of Americans stop using tobacco. The plan includes both evi…

Fuel pump promos
Jennifer Mindell spotted a new venue for cigarette advertising in the UK in 1997—fuel pump handles at petrol (gas) stations.1 In April of this year, I came across the same marketing technique in Somerset, Pennsylvania, USA, at a Turkey Hill Minit Market, where this convenience store and an Exxon gas station are operated jointly. On the day I visited the Minit Market, all of the cigarette ads appearing on the fuel pump handles promoted a special s…
The horrors of smoking

ISBN 0671046160 (cassette)/0671046179 (CD) I have never read a book by Stephen King. But I couldn't resist buying Blood and smoke , available only as an audiobook and read engagingly by King himself. It comes in a flip top box resembling a pack of Marlboros, and contains a CD or three audiocassette tapes, depending on the versio…
Lorillard's "Candy Box" ad for Newport cigarettes
One of the axioms in tobacco control is that today's outrage from the tobacco industry will be eclipsed by tomorrow's. Just when you think you've seen the worst possible transgression by the bad guys, something even worse comes along. The “outrage” in the spring of 1985 was an advertisement for Newport Lights which featured a pregnant woman, or at least a woman who looked pregnant— very pregnant. The ad is reproduced on the cover of this journal …
The vestiges of cigarette advertising in Norway
WATCHThe vestiges of cigarette advertising in Norway On a recent one-day trip to Oslo, Norway, I was pleased to be in a country with no cigarette advertising-well, almost none.Marlboro duty-free shopping bags were ubiquitous in the Oslo airport, as they are in most airports around the world.In addition, three full-page cigarette ads (without health warnings!)were in Scanorama, the inflight magazine of Scandanavian Airlines System (SAS) (figures 1…
The Marlboro Man needs Viagra
This past June the California Department of Health Services announced its latest assault on tobacco—a $22 million advertising campaign aimed in part at young men 18–30 years of age. Funding for the campaign comes from Proposition 99, the 1988 ballot initiative which increased cigarette taxes and dedicated much of the revenue to tobacco control efforts. Among the 25 new radio, television, and print ads produced are a few that emphasise the link be…

The delivery of smoking cessation services
What I will try to do is to present a base of information on the extent to which various smoking cessation services and messages are delivered. I will cover the major channels through which such services and messages are delivered, and I will talk about the benefits of each channel. I will also address what I perceive to be the need to enhance the effectiveness or volume of messages and programmes through those channels. ### Benefits If we start …

Report of the Tobacco Policy Research Study Group on Adjunctive Medications for Managing Nicotine Dependence
Because smoking is so common, and because its complications are so common and so devastating,1 nicotine dependence is the most common serious medical problem in the United States.2,3 Clinical approaches to management of this condition have improved markedly over the past 15 years.3,4 Substantial advances in behavioural therapy have been complemented by the introduction of pharmacological agents that ameliorate nicotine withdrawal. Though these ma…

Report of the Tobacco Policy Research Study Group on Tobacco Marketing and Promotion
In this report a distinction is drawn between two categories of marketing and promotion activities. The first and most familiar category includes activities typically denoted by “advertising and promotion”, entailing tobacco company efforts targeted directly at tobacco consumers or prospective consumers and intended to encourage tobacco use (either initiation or maintenance, and either brand specific or brand neutral smoking). The second category…

The reliability of self-reported cigarette consumption in the United States
To investigate the possibility that self-reported smoking is not a valid measure for assessing trends in smoking prevalence, we compared total self-reported cigarette consumption with the adjusted consumption data from cigarette excise taxes as reported by the US Department of Agriculture (USDA) for the period 1974 through 1985. Self-reported consumption was calculated by using data from the National Health Interview Surveys (NHIS) for adults and…
Information on tar and nicotine yields on cigarette packages
We examined information on tar and nicotine yields on the packages of 160 cigarette brands, 58 percent of the 275 brands for which tar and nicotine yields were listed in a recent Federal Trade Commission report. The tar yield was indicated on 14 percent, the nicotine yield was indicated on 11 percent. As tar yield increased among brands, the yield was progressively less likely to be shown on the package and was not disclosed on the package of any…

Report of the Tobacco Policy Research Study Group on Smoke-Free Indoor Air Policies
The rationale for policies that restrict the locations where smoking is permitted reflects three major issues :Environmental tobacco smoke (ETS) is annoying and irritating to most non-smokers ETS can cause acute and chronic illness in non-smokers Restricting the locations where smoking is allowed may increase the number of smokers who attempt to stop smoking ; may reduce the frequency of relapse by those who attempt to stop ; and may reduce the n…
