Yeah really...I don't smoke, and I know all the statistics on smoking, as does any other idiot on the planet, so I don't see how them advertising the cigarettes is going to cause anymore of a problem than we already have.

It's been so long since nicotine ads had a place on television and the industry still moves hundreds of millions, maybe billions, per year. What the use in going back now? It's still a drug that leads to an unhealthy addiction. I say things are fine like how they are now. Keep the ads off TV and limited to magazines and billboards.

It's not like they're losing money because they're not advertising on TV.

It would be fine with me if they finally banned print ads too.

I think they probably could air on TV again, but since it's been so long since they have....and since the tobacco industry ain't hurting....that it's pointless now.

Prescription drugs are not the equivalent of smoking.
I have no problem if they were to start airing cigarette commercials again. Everybody knows the risks and if they want to take those risks, that's up to them. Tobacco companies are a business like any other business and they have the right to advertise on television.
