Coalition: Tobacco company targets teens
WASHINGTON (AP) — The
R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Co. contin-
ues to market cigarettes to young-
sters while fighting the govern-
ment’s efforts to educate children
against the dangers of smoking, an
anti-smoking coalition charged
Wednesday.
“The R.J. Reynolds Tobacco
Company has the gall to blame the
problem of youth smoking on
everyone but itself,” the Coalition
on Smoking or Health said in a let-
ter to newspaper editors released
Wednesday.
The accusation came as The
Washington Post reported that a
company official recommended in
a 1973 memo that RJR create cig-
arette brands targeted at the youth
market.
The coalition is objecting to ads,
which began running Sept. 26 in
25 newspapers around the country,
that ask: “Who should be respon-
sible for your children, a bureau-
crat or you?”
The ads say that the company
supports and funds programs in
which parents and teachers edu-
cate children in “how to resist peer
pressure and make more fully
informed decisions.”
“We all agree we must do some-
thing to keep cigarettes out of the
hands of children under the age of
18,” the ads say. “But the answer
isn’t more bureaucracy.”
RJR spokeswoman Maura Ellis
said Wednesday that the surgeon
general and the Centers for Dis-
ease Confrol and Prevention have
agreed that peer pressure is the
main reason youngsters start to
smoke.
“Clearly, this is very threatening
to the anti-smoking industry and
they’re making kind of sloppy
accusations back out of frustra-
tion,” she said.
Scott D. Ballin, spokesman for
the American Heart Association, a
coalition member, said the compa-
ny has been marketing to teen-
agers for 30 years.
“They’ve been robbing the cra-
dle of America’s kids for too
long,” he said. “How can anyone
believe they don’t market to kids
when their own documents prove
it?”
Sunrise/Sunset
Friday, Oct. 6
Sunrise: 7:12
Sunset: 7:05
The RJR memo obtained by the
Post suggested that a new cigarette
brand could be marketed as a way
to cope with the pressures of being
a teen-ager.
“Realistically, if our company is
to survive and prosper, over the
long term, we must get our share
of the youth market. In my opin-
ion, this will require new brands
tailored to the youth market,”
Claude E. Teague Jr., then the
company’s assistant director of
research and development, wrote.
Pick 3
Teague said he believed tobacco
companies were “unfairly con-
strained from directly promoting
cigarettes to the youth market.”
RJR spokesman David B. Fishel
played down the memo’s signifi-
cance, calling it a “draft document
that reflects preliminary thought of
one individual in research and
development.’
