Public Health Cigarette Smoking Act : ウィキペディア英語版 | Public Health Cigarette Smoking Act
The Public Health Cigarette Smoking Act is a United States federal law, passed in 1970, designed to limit the practice of smoking. It required a stronger health warning on cigarette packages, saying ''"Warning: The Surgeon General Has Determined that Cigarette Smoking Is Dangerous to Your Health"''. The Act also banned cigarette advertisements on American radio and television.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Tobaccodocuments.org - Public Health Cigarette Smoking Act of 1969 )〕 ==Origins== The Public Health Cigarette Smoking Act was one of the major bills resulting from the 1964 report by the Surgeon General, Luther Leonidas Terry. The report found that lung cancer and chronic bronchitis are causally related to cigarette smoking. Congress previously passed the Cigarette Labeling and Advertising Act in 1965 requiring that all cigarette packages sold in the United States carry a health warning.〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url=http://profiles.nlm.nih.gov/NN/Views/Exhibit/narrative/smoking.html )〕 But after a recommendation by the Federal Trade Commission, the Public Health Cigarette Smoking Act amended the 1965 law so that the warnings are made in the name of the Surgeon General.〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url=http://www.druglibrary.org/Schaffer/LIBRARY/studies/nc/nc2b.htm )〕 One of the major advocates of the cigarette advertising ban was the Federal Communications Commission. The FCC argued that since the topic of smoking is controversial, numerous TV and radio stations continued to break the Fairness Doctrine when airing these commercials because they did not give equal time to the opposing viewpoint that smoking is dangerous.〔 The Public Health Cigarette Smoking Act was introduced into Congress in 1969, but it was not until April 1, 1970 when U.S. President Richard Nixon signed it into law. The actual cigarette advertising ban did not come into force until January 2, 1971, as per a compromise that allowed broadcasters to air these commercials during their telecasts of college football bowl games on New Year's Day.〔
