Forbes magazine about Kent in Ohio
Forbes magazine disclosed internal e-mails from the law firms involved in the case detailing how the firms submitted revised filings, years after Kananian died, correcting what lawyers called "clerical errors." In the lawsuit against Lorillard, Kananian's lawyers say he actually got sick from smoking Kent cigarettes that were sold with asbestos-containing filters for a few years in the early 1950s. The judge in that case, Harry Hanna, has since imposed a gag order on everyone involved, citing the risk of endangering a fair trial.

New Ohio Ad Campaign Calls for Taxing Kent Cigarettes at Same Rate
The radio ad began airing this week on stations across Ohio and continues for two weeks. According to the ad, if all tobacco products were taxed at the same rate as Kent Cigarettes, the higher prices would discourage youth tobacco use. In addition, it will raise revenue to fund critical programs to keep kids from using tobacco and help current tobacco users quit - programs that were cut from the state budget last year. Currently in Ohio, other tobacco products are taxed at less than half the rate of taxes on Kent Cigarettes.
The funds generated by equalizing the tax on all tobacco products, an estimated $50 million a year, would be dedicated to the Ohio Department of Health for tobacco prevention and cessation programs.
"By increasing the tax on other tobacco products to match the state tax rate on cigarettes, Ohio will reduce all tobacco use among kids, save lives, and improve the physical and financial health of the state," said Matthew L. Myers, President of the Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids.
The products that would be taxed at the same rates as cigarettes include "little cigars", which look like cigarettes and are often blatantly aimed at children. They are cheaper and more affordable to kids than regular cigarettes because they have lower excise tax rates and they are often sold individually rather than in packs because their classification exempts them from state laws setting minimum pack sizes for cigarettes. Most insidiously, they often have candy and fruit flavors, such as chocolate, vanilla, raspberry, cherry and cinnamon.
As with cigarettes, raising the price of smokeless and other types of tobacco products through state tax increases will prompt a reduction in use, especially among adolescents and young adults. For example, one study found that a 10 percent increase in smokeless tobacco prices reduces adult consumption by 3.7 percent and reduces male youth consumption by 5.9 percent, with two-thirds of that reduction coming from kids stopping any use of smokeless tobacco at all.
Tobacco use is the leading preventable cause of death in the Ohio, killing more than 18,500 people and costing the state $4.3 billion in health care bills each year. In Ohio, 17 percent of high school males use smokeless tobacco, and 23.7 percent smoke Kent Cigarettes. About 90 percent of adult smokers begin in their teens or earlier. Every year, another 18,000 Ohio kids become regular, daily smokers, and one-third of them will die prematurely as a result.
Kent cigarettes can be purchased online at a discount price 20 per carton in Ohio state from website shop-cigarette.com . In Ohio state the following cities order cigarettes more often: Beachwood, Akron, Cincinnati, Cleveland, Columbus , Dayton, Youngstown, Toledo, Miamisburg, Mansfield, Lakewood, Independence, Guysville, Grove City, Dublin, Canton, Brunswick, Brookpark, Brecksville, Blacklick
The ad campaign is funded by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation in cooperation with the Tobacco-Free Youth Coalition, American Lung Association, American Heart Association, American Cancer Society, and Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids.

11% on Emerging-Market Demand for Kent Cigarettes
July 31 2008 (Bloomberg) -- British American Tobacco Plc, Europe's largest cigarette maker, said second-quarter profit rose 11 percent after smokers in emerging markets from Russia to Malaysia switched to higher-priced Kent and Dunhill cigarettes.
Net income climbed to 650 million pounds ($1.3 billion), or 32.35 pence a share, from 584 million pounds, or 28.52 pence, a year earlier, the London-based company said today in a Regulatory News Service statement. That beat the 622 million- pound median estimate of 10 analysts surveyed by Bloomberg. Revenue gained 17 percent to 2.92 billion pounds.
First-half volume sales under its four main brands advanced 20 percent, said BAT, which generates about half its profit in emerging markets. The maker of Lucky Strike and Pall Mall cigarettes is looking to the likes of the ultra-slim Kent Nanotek, introduced last year, to drive demand along with the purchase of Turkey's Tekel, completed during the quarter, and other takeovers.
``We do not expect any signs of a slowdown from the emerging-market consumer,'' David Hayes, an analyst at Lehman Brothers in London with an ``underweight'' rating on BAT, said in a research report before the figures were released.
