Description: The scientific studies on the health effects of tobacco go back to 1938, but few papers were running stories about it: their leading advertisers were the tobacco companies. George Seldes (1890-1995) was an exception; a set of his tobacco stories from 1940 to 1950 is reprinted here.
For more information on tobacco issues George Seldes on Tobacco: Fifty Years Ahead of His Time More than 50 articles from Seldes's newsletter Stanton Glantz, in his milestone book The Cigarette Papers, writes, "During the early 1950s scientists began to publish scientific studies suggesting that cigarette smoking causes lung cancer and other diseases." He goes on to write, "These results... were widely reported in newspapers and magazines such as the New York Times, Reader's Digest, and Life."
