Deadly Persuasion Part 4/4 The Advertising of Alcohol & Tobacco by Jean Kilbourne

Deadly Persuasion
The Advertising of Alcohol & Tobacco

In Deadly Persuasion: The Advertising of Alcohol & Tobacco, Jean Kilbourne exposes the manipulative marketing strategies and tactics used by the tobacco and alcohol industries to keep Americans hooked on their dangerous products. Illustrating her analysis with hundreds of current advertising examples from mainstream and trade sources, Kilbourne presents a compelling argument that these cynical industries have a clear and deep understanding of the psychology of addiction -- an understanding they exploit to create and feed a life-threatening dependency on their products.

Deadly Persuasion casts a critical eye on the corporate interests that lie behind the industries whose products kill more than 450,000 Americans each year.

big problem with overtaxing tobacco.... it causes the black market to grow significantly. people arent really quitting, they are shifting demand to another source
