"Antismoking Proposal Gets Graphic"
(June 30) -- Blackened lung tissue. Amputated finger tips. Tracheotomy scars. Sound appetizing?
These images could be part of a new antismoking campaign in New York City. A proposal from the city's Department of Mental Health and Hygiene suggests prominently displaying antismoking signs near the cash registers of all cigarette retailers.
The legislation would be the first of its kind in the United States. And while Canada, New Zealand and Australia currently have sign requirements, New York would be the first to include graphics, according to The New York Times' City Room blog.
