Letter: Don’t forget Las Vegas 400 is backed by a cigarette company
Friday, March 20, 1998 | 10:32 a.m.
Many of these people don't even know smoking is bad for them. There's little or no health care in these places. The cigarette companies don't print warning labels on their packages because they don't have to.
At least we can all sleep well at night, knowing they would never target the youth of foreign countries. After all, we've seen what a good job cigarette companies have done in this country when given the opportunity to police themselves.
