Marketplace Confessional

"Instead of hyping the "Mad Men" premiere on Sunday, why doesn't Marketplace engage the criticism that this show glamorizes smoking? How can the media give a pass when, no less than big tobacco advertising over the decades, the show supports an addiction that kills nearly a half-million per year, with localities, states, and the federal government picking up the health cost tab long after this show is off the air? Where is the critical coverage that media ethics might suggest should accompany the fawning coverage?"
