Ethics...forget about'em!


SMOKING is GLAMOUR(g)ross


In their April 2011 edition GLAMOUR magazine ran a full page ad (with coupons) for American Spirit cigarettes...as though this makes them cancer free or fashion forward! Despite a huge number of letters of objection sent to the editors, not one was published. Later, with irony apparently lost on the editors, GLAMOUR even used a picture of a young woman smoking as a fashion "DON'T" in their fashion pictorial that runs at the end of every mag. Then, to confirm without question, their position: We don't care about the health of young women and girls who constitute a large part of out readership! They did it again! A full page ad for cigarettes was run in their August issue. So...having given GLAMOUR a more than ample chance to rectify their poor choices, and getting only canned, unsympathetic responses to letters to their editors, it is time for those of us who DO care about the health, welfare, and style of today's woman to take matters into our own hands. STOP your subscriptions! Encourage your friends to do the same! Let GLAMOUR know...We've come a long way Baby! You need to do the same.


Check the GLAMOUR cover for the September issue at the start of this post!
