OUR Opinions BIG TOBACCO: THE EMPIRE Forum STRIKES BACK OR: IS YOUR CHILD A NICOTINE ADDICT?

In the mid-1990s, our newspaper group was honored in con- secutive years by the Massachusetts branch of the American Cancer Society for our reporting and editorials regarding the regulation of tobacco products in our local communities. We wrote about every aspect of the tobacco industry, from the in- sidious means by which the tobacco companies were pushing their products with advertising geared toward young people, to taking to task local authorities who were not doing as much as they could have (by means of ordinances limiting smoking in public places) in order to prevent young people from becoming the future tobacco addicts of America. This exact week in 1999, we editorialized in favor of a state law to ban smoking in restaurants. So it was with a great deal of personal satisfaction that we took some degree of pride in what seemed to be the vanquish- ing of a foe -- the tobacco lobby -- that for generations in this country had reigned with impunity and that had seemed invinci- ble until there finally were laws enacted throughout the country limiting the sale and use of tobacco beginning in the mid-2000s. Shortly after these laws went into effect, teenage cigarette smoking rates began to decline precipitously and smoking in public became an anathema. Big Tobacco had been defeated. Or so it seemed. But like one of those horror-film swamp creatures that be- comes resurrected in even more ominous form when exposed to seemingly deadly radiation, Big Tobacco is back -- and in a big way -- thanks to the new, so-called e-cigarettes. A recent article in the New York Times put it this way, “Al- though teen cigarette smoking rates have fallen below five percent, America is now contending with an epidemic of young people using e-cigs, vapes, and other ‘nicotine delivery devic- LETTER to the Editor es,’ as the tobacco industry christened them years ago in secret memos, searching for an official alternative to describing their MESSAGE FROM great photos on our Facebook the TAC’s recommendations Greenway to Winthrop has products as cigarettes.” BIKE WINTHROP page and the full page spread to the Winthrop Town Coun- been approved in the House Nicotine is considered by some to be the most addictive sub- in May 2 edition of The Win- cil for improvements to bike budget!
