Karen’s Korner By Karen M asshoff Here is the latest post script to the “safer cigarette” discussion. This com es from a fo rm e r d ire c to r o f a p p lie d research at Philip Morris, William Farone, (who, coincidentally, will be a fe a tu re d s p e a k e r at T obacco P r e v e n tio n 's C o n fe re n c e in M arch). The industry had the technology to make a Marlboro Light cigarette a “truly safer c ig a rette..., but chose not to.” Farone also said, “Philip M orris designs cigarettes like Marlboro Lights and Cambridge L ights (they have also been aware that consumers at one time perceived “light” to mean safer) to c r e a te a n d m a in ta in addiction... This objective has been achieved by m anipulating the levels o f nicotine in the cigarettes...” Is Big Tobacco still at it? You bet. This time it is Lorillard T obacco w ho has b ecom e a major sponsor o f ESPN's Winter X G am es, a popular extrem e sports event. What better way to be a v is ib le p r e s e n c e to thousands ofkids in communities a c ro s s th e c o u n tr y ? T h e ir m essage/youth anti-sm oking program: “Tobacco is Whacko... If You’re a Teen.” N um erous observers o f this program have reported that it plainly suggests that sm oking is a “ grow n-up” (therefore both forbidden and cool) activity. How alluring can you be? And Lorillard's Newport cigarettes do have a significant number o f youthful smokers. If we and our legislative representatives ever got serious about regulating the tobacco industry, holding them to what they are required to do, one o f those tools is already at hand. I àm re fe rrin g to th e M àster Settlem ent A greem ent (M SA ) that 46 states, including Oregon, signed in 1998 w ith the four largest tobacco companies in the United States. The MSA settled sta te su its to re c o v e r c o sts associated with treating smoking- related illnesses, among various other claims, including anti-trust, c o n s u m e r p r o te c tio n , a n d racketeering. As you are aw are, the MSA does not pay for tobacco education/prevention; M easure 44 taxes on cigarettes passed in 1996 d o e s . O u r e d u c a tio n program has nev er realized any m onies from the M SA. 1 have a copy o f the M aster Settlem ent Agreement - Financial Prov ision - from the Legislative Revenue O ffice. I will share this w ith anyone w ho asks. It does show estim ated M SA paym ents and uses. As o f June 30,2002, there w as $257.6 m illion in actual receipts. W here did it go? »
