massive cigarette advertising on television was


Massive cigarette advertising on television was commonplace until laws prohibiting such advertising were introduced in the early 1970's. Imagine prior to such legislation that there were only two brands: Camels and Marlboros sold by two firms in a non-zero sum game.
