Yes 20 20 Is hindsight. In 1966 surgeon general warned about smoking. This 1940 s and 1950 s. He died from smoking. When he started no one knew. Thank God my father became religious and quit smoking.
Well Jack Webb was wrong about smoking, that and alcoholism cost him his life The consequences of fictional dialog, cigarette carnival barking and stolen glory
He was no alcoholic, there’s no justification for that statement, and he died of a heart attack. Smoking probably had something to do with that cause of death, but even that isn’t certain. If he was “wrong about smoking,” so were countless millions of others, many of whom died in their beds of old age.

I wonder if this is a variation on case in The Big Grab? Both cases involve a professor's wife who was kidnapped.
Room 42 ...Homicide 👍🏼
Never have understood sentencing for kidnapping. You can get a longer sentence for kidnapping than murder.
How did the kidnapped victim return home?
Can you imagine a cigarette commercial nowadays? The ACLU would be suing every one!
Wouldn’t it be exactly the opposite? The ACLU sues for civil rights, the right of free speech among them.
Cigarette companies have been sued.
Jack Webb is A Savage!!!
You're killing me, Smalls.
Chesterfields were about 20 cents a pack !
Yep, and half that at the PX/BX if you were in the service and no tax on the smokes!
