Truth Campaign Newsflash: Teens Like Sweet Products!

truth_flavors.jpg

Continuing their idiotic approach to anti-smoking, the TRUTH campaign is out with yet another off the wall commercial featuring the hairstyle-challenged Derek. In this spot, Derek tries to sell cigarette “flavors” to kids basing the whole shtick on the most ancient cigarette company document they’ve used to date, a 1972 internal document that stated “it’s a well known fact that teenagers like sweet products” as if that statement were some sort of revelation. Can we please retire Derek and this idiocy and get back to some of the better stuff we know this campaign is capable of?
