Tobacco companies say that they don't target their ads at young people. So here's your chance to see for yourself. Then grab a magazine and look for tobacco ads. Or, go to your local corner store and look around the store for tobacco advertising. Now, answer these questions as you check out the advertising.
Some ads show sporting events.
Advertisers want you to buy the products they're selling. And they may do whatever they can to get you to buy. They'll tell you it's cool, or make it look like everyone else uses their product, that their product is more fun, attracts dates, represents maturity, whatever. They try to play you. Avoid being taken for a fool.
