Disney Under Pressure to Stop Tobacco Ads from Vice

Guardian: Anti-tobacco campaigners are pressuring Disney to use its $400 million stake in Vice Media to stop the youth-focused media company from making ads for the tobacco industry. It was revealed in March that Vice’s London-based marketing agency Edition Worldwide was creating ads for Marlboro maker Phillip Morris. The ads do not carry Vice branding, will not run on its properties and will not be used in the UK or US where there are strict rules against advertising cigarettes.
