Vicki McKenna of WIBA interviewed Bill Godshall of Smokefree Pennsylvania on November 15th 2010.  Bill does not hold back in blasting Big Pharma, FDA, tobacco ban advocates, and their fellow travellers for foregoing common sense and embracing personal/political agendas.     Hear for yourself Bill Godshall's case against cigarettes but for nicotine and tobacco users.

Bill's argument is brilliant and factual.  All smokefree tobacco and cigarette users need to hear this.  I also recommend forwarding this recording to your Representatives in Washington and to your State, and Local officials.  It might also be instructive to forward this to your Anti-All-Tobacco friends.  Just tell them it's "for the children".

Now onto Bill Godshall's Tobacco Harm Reduction Update for 16 November 2010:

Smokeless Tobacco - The Latest Lies

• FCTC Sectretariat ignores WHO scientific report, misrepresents health risks of smokeless tobacco products.

• Iowa Health Department lies about risks of smokefree tobacco products.

• Pennsylvania Department of Health makes many false claims about smokeless tobacco.

• AAO-HNS Chair falsely claims smokeless "not a healthier alternative to smoking", misrepresents cancer risks.

• Tobacco control lawyers urge FDA to ban low nitrosamine smokeless tobacco products (while keeping far more hazardous cigarettes legal), misrepresent products' health risks and marketing.

• Despite evidence smokeless tobacco more effective than NRT in helping smokers quit in Sweden and Norway, anti-tobacco activists down under want to keep products banned to prevent smokers from reducing health risks.

Big Government in the UK fails to help smokers quit when NRT Program Backfires

• Fewer smokers try quitting cigarettes after UK provides free NRT and cessation clinics

Still fighting for tobacco sanity,
