PR75: What Big Tobacco Can Teach You About The American Health Hustle

from Project Rook · host Rook D. Great

When I think of the word mafia there's one thing that comes to mind, Big Tobacco. After over 50 years of knowingly lying and deceiving the public about the deleterious effects of smoking, the Tobacco industry is just now being held accountable in the court of law and admitting their detrimental actions. There are so many lessons that can be learned and so many clues that reflect how much of the same playbook used by the Tobacco industry in the 1900s are still very much in effect today.
