      It’s asbestos, isn’t it?

          Bingo.

          Ed: nope, Cork though many did actually use asbestos.

              nor does Viceroy make this claim

              That has to be the least dishonest tobacco ad in the history of tobacco ads. Incredibly low bar obviously. And despite the fact that it’s probably a lead, mercury and asbestos filter or something to that effect

                  It’s shockingly true that the tar trapped in the filter can never stain your teeth!

                  The law should include font size into consideration when evaluation ad’s truthfulness. Why does it not, I wonder?
