Smoking: The Truth Unfiltered (Excerpt)

In the Mix is the Emmy award winning PBS documentary series for teens.

Co-Hosted by supermodel Tyra Banks, In the Mix tackles smoking prevention in a high energy, in-depth program that dispels common misconceptions among teens. Featured segments include a hard look at the addictive aspects of tobacco as well as the wide range of physical effects; profiles of teens who are kicking the habit; a profile of a young woman suffering from emphysema; and an ex-Lucky Strike cigarette model who has cancer. Interviews with Bill Novelli, marketing expert and past president of the Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids, and teen activists are aimed at raising awareness of how cigarette companies target teens and manipulate them into thinking smoking is OK. The goal is to convince teens that smoking is detrimental to their health in the present and in the near future—not just 30 or 40 years down the line.

Over 60 half hour additional programs on topics of critical interest to teens are available as educational DVDs. Many are closed captioned and have Spanish subtitles.
