You are correct.
And their lies keep getting bigger and bigger.
During the debating of the smoking ban in Delaware one of the more well known antis, Joe cherner, had a letter printed in one of the local papers and claimed his location to be Wilmington, DE. All well and good, but he's a New York City resident who fled the city with his lover and family and have been residing in FRANCE since shortly after 9/11/01. But no one at the paper called him on it nor would the paper print any of the numerous letters they received correcting that little tidbit.
Another prominent anti, stanton Glantz, had a very long opinion piece prominently printed in that same paper on the front page of a Sunday opinion section. In it he claimed that a person putting out anti-ban brochures and bumper stickers was a former tobacco lobbyist. That came as a bit of a shock to the person putting out the info - he owns a printing company and was doing it on his own time and his only ties to the tobacco industry was that he was a smoker. His letter of correction to the newspaper was heavily editted and inserted in the paper on a tuesday or a Thursday.
These people are evil and their deceptiveness and out right lies need to be exposed for what they are.
