Explore 9 deceptive vintage ads that promoted toxic products as healthy. From doctors endorsing cigarettes to lead paint and sugar-filled baby soda, we reveal the history of false advertising and unethical marketing that still impacts public health today.
Nice research fleshing out the background and context. In the 1960s and 70s, my parents in no way "believed" advertisements. Now we have generations that do. Again, for us who had internet when it first arrived, we were warned that anybody could say or post anything. And yet, now we have generations of idiots who believe everything they see. AND its the duty of the advertiser to make sure its true, safe, non-judgemental, inoffensive to all the labeled groups, verified and spellchecked. And yet, not an improvement out there, much worse.
Asbestos is also a problem that was swept under the rug. Not so fun fact there was 2000 tons of Asbestos in the world trade centers that turned to dust during 9/11 and the EPA said the air was safe to breathe.

Though nowadays Dr Ardis is making it clear to many that Nicotine is not only good for you but it is not addictive.
