Global Tobacco Control Will Be Exposed

Sept. 15, 2009 - PRLog -- Goerlitz displays his disgust with the deceit that the tobacco control movement has employed in an article by Simon Eldon-Edington for the hospitality trade magazine The Publican. The article detailed how California, one of the birth-places of smoking bans, allowed indoor smoking restrictions that safeguarded the freedom and rights of its citizens.

He comments, “There is no reason in the world with all our technology and brainpower that we have not been able to come up with something more reasonable, fair and logical than the junk science the anti-smoking power hungry zealots are throwing at us. The media has to be held accountable as well, as more and more evidence has been uncovered showing the lies and corruption being used by tobacco control as we know it.” (1)

David Goerlitz, well-known as the former Winston Man, caused a stir in 1988 when he denounced the tobacco industry and joined the anti-smoking movement. Since then he has campaigned tirelessly against tobacco and has been honoured by the WHO, the American Lung Association and the American Cancer Society.  He has also been highlighted on the ASH (UK) website for his relentless pursuit against smoking.

Andy Davis, chairman of pro-choice organisation Freedom2Choose states, “David has already confirmed in an explosive interview with historian Christopher Snowdon how guilty and embarrassed he now feels by his association with the tobacco control industry. (3) He is a man of virtue and knows the anti-tobacco industry inside-out.”

“David’s comments come in a week where tobacco control has continued its tactic of science by press release,” continues Andy Davis.  “Ignoring the fact that the heart attack reductions have already proven to be junk, they continue to rattle out these fairy stories before publication or even peer review.”

Goerlitz concludes his comments by vowing to work with TICAP, Freedom2Choose and Forces International to “help make the changes necessary so that dignity and respect can once again replace control, prohibition and coercion.”
