Anti-Smoking Lies

What I don't get is why engage in hyperbole when the potential harm cigarettes can cause speaks for itself? Why constantly feed the fear-mongering shit hole?

  1. Never heard anything about cigs and DNA before...

    As for why, it's pretty simple. All those tobacco settlements in the 90's led not only to the ending of tobacco ads on TV, but also required cigarette manufacturers to spend smoe amount of money per year on anti-smoking advertising. Since then, anti-smoking advertisements have been designed by tobacco companies to make anti-smoking look stupid. It's genius, really.

  2. Out of necessity comes genius I suppose.

    Maybe that's why they go on the offensive like that. Tobacco companies are sharp when it comes to spin.
