Tobacco industry documents
From an article titled, The Fraser Institute: Economic Think Tank or Front for the Tobacco Industry? by Mary Jane Ashley, M.D., Professor of Public Health Department of Public Health Sciences, and Chair, Expert Committee, Ontario Minister of Health's Advisory Panel on the Review of the Ontario Tobacco Strategy, et al (Canadian Nonsmokers Rights Association):
Like several other speakers at the Conference, Jacob Sullum has also been the benefactor of tobacco industry largesse. He first came to the attention of the health community when he was the managing editor of Reason magazine . Articles which he published in The Wall Street Journal and Forbes Media Critic were republished by the tobacco industry in full page ads in US papers. The ads,of course,failed to disclose that his employer, The Reason Foundation,received donations from the tobacco industry and that he personally was paid by R.J. Reynolds for the rights to republish his articles.(see The Cigarette Papers) Since 1994 and publication of the ads, Sullum has continued his attack on the scientific literature related to environmental tobacco smoke.[2]
Personnel
The magazine is edited by Nick Gillespie who took over from tobacco defender Jacob Sullum.
