Tobacco Companies Court-Ordered Warnings
(Washington, DC) — Tobacco companies’ websites are now posting court-ordered warnings about the health effects of smoking and nicotine.

The statements were ordered as part of a 2006 federal court decision that found major cigarette manufacturers defrauded the public about the health risks of tobacco products.
