CIGARETTE AD ON TELEVISION
On December 31, 1970, the last cigarette ad, a commercial for Virginia Slims, was aired on the "Tonight Show." Cigarette advertising was banned from radio and TV effective January 1, 1971.

Im glad too. Im sick of watching people fall prey to stupid advertising, and slowly polluting away their bodies.

*snickers* It'd be weird to see/hear a cig ad on t.v./the radio anyways. People know they're there, so no biggie.

Marlboro Mayhem

I'm a non-smoker, and I am against smoking.

However, I think something should either be legal or illegal- not this wishy-washy, inbetween stuff. It just becomes a circus of idiocy otherwise. They are running a business, so they have a right to advertise (within reason, of course).
