Philip Morris and the "unholy alliance"

Patrick Basham, director of the Democracy Institute and co-author of a series of reports including The Obese and Other Victims of Denormalisation, talks about his new book - Butt Out! How Philip Morris Burned Ted Kennedy, the FDA & the Anti-Tobacco Movement - HERE.

The book investigates what Basham calls the "unholy alliance" between Philip Morris USA and tobacco control groups in America that looks certain to result in legislation favourable to PM and detrimental to rival manufacturers.

Michael Siegal reviews Butt Out! HERE.

Update: Patrick Basham is attending Forest's 30th anniversary reception in London on 22 June. See previous post.
