Philip Morris

Trailer for the documentary Addiction Incorporated. Docu tells the amazing story of Victor DeNoble, one of the most important and influential whistleblowers of all time. In the 1980s, DeNoble was a research scientist at Philip Morris, where he was tasked with finding a substitute for nicotine that would not cause heart attacks. His quest was to find out whether it would be possible to create a cigarette that would be safer for smokers… though not necessarily less addictive. DeNoble succeeded, but in the process, produced something that had been denied and avoided for years: scientific evidence that nicotine was addictive. After his lab was shuttered and his research pulled from publication and locked in a vault, DeNoble took his findings public in what was nothing less than an act of modern-day heroism, testifying about his research in the infamous 1994 Congressional hearings the same ones that produced the now-famous video of the seven heads of the major tobacco companies declaring, under oath, that they believed nicotine was not addictive. In the end, an unprecedented alliance of journalists, politicians, attorneys, and whistleblowers banded together to achieve what was once considered impossible: the first-ever federal regulation of the tobacco industry.

A fight kind of runs out of steam 15 seconds in, George Washington laments that his vision of the future has not been realized, and Philip Morris releases its new line of Marlboro PM cigarettes.

Governor Morris (George Clooney) argues with Paul (Philip Seymour Hoffman).

The Abiding Word Lutheran Church in Highlands Ranch Colorado has the words 'We Hate Gays!' on their street marquee. Capn Cannabis narrates the newsworthy event. The church is located in the 3rd richest county in the nation, in a community that was originally started by Philip Morris. It should be stated for legal purposes that CapnCannabis is NOT the perpertrator of this prank-nor did he have prior knowledge the event was going to occur. The Capn was just lucky enough to have captured the moment for a top ten entry into the Church Prank Hall of Fame, if it was indeed a prank and not a disgruntled church employee-we still don't know. So please sue someone else, all you dicks threatening to sue us, and please stop hacking our sites. Someone pranked you- wasn't us-but it's still funny fucking shit so laugh at it and move on- What would Jesus do? He'd smoke a bowl and chill out. Please follow the long haired hippies advice and roll a joint and smoke it. Everyone else enjoy the funny moment in time captured, because even as a prank, still makes me laugh. The CapN
