        In the 70's, we could smoke while we were in labor with our soon to be born babies. Crazy!

        And they would smoke in the hospital too. No joke.

        My MIL & Mother were both prescribed smoking by docs in the early 60's to cure their low blood pressure and fainting.

        I had an older friend from work who was told to stop smoking by his doctor while the doctor had a cigarette in his mouth.

        "Doctors Smoke Camels" ... an important reminder for why Corporate speech is vastly different from Citizen speech. Deep pockets, narrow interest and primary motive for profit make the distinction, not just important, but life and death vital.

        The marketing and quasi-science strategies of the cigarette industry during the second half of the 20th century bears many similarities to today's climate change deniers. Their battle cry, as late as 1994, was still "cigarettes are not addictive".http://www.nytimes.com/1994/04/15/us/tobacco-chiefs-say-cigarettes-aren-t-addictive.html?pagewanted=all …

        Is this similar to what a Fox News ad would look like if they existed in the 50s?
