Philip Morris’ Admission Comes Too Late for Many
I am deeply touched by Philip Morris’ belated admission that people using their main products incur significant risk of health problems [“Philip Morris’ New Campaign Echoes Medical Experts,” Oct. 13].
Also very touching is the news--received via their TV advertisements--that they do all sorts of good things for the needy and abused women.
In fact, I find myself wondering whether I should forget that a wife, sister and several friends might still be living had they known of what the tobacco companies had so tenaciously concealed and denied until this very moment.
