To document the history of visits to Australia by tobacco industry sponsored scientists and news media reports about smoking and health matters generated by their visits.
Systematic keyword and opportunistic website searches of tobacco industry internal documents made available through the Master Settlement Agreement.
At least nine sponsored scientists visited Australia from 1969 until 1979. The industry sought to promote the scientists as independent from the industry and on occasion, scientists publicly lied about their industry connections. The industry was sometimes delighted with the extensive and favourable media coverage given to the visits.
These media reports are likely to have influenced many who were exposed to them to believe that the evidence against smoking remained equivocal.
记录烟草行业资助的科学家访问澳大利亚的历史，以及他们的访问所引发的关于吸烟与健康问题的新闻媒体报道。
通过《主协议和解协议》获取的烟草行业内部文件进行系统的关键词和机会性网站搜索。
1969年至1979年期间，至少有九名受资助的科学家访问了澳大利亚。该行业试图将这些科学家宣传为独立于行业之外的人，有时，科学家们还就他们与行业的关系公开撒谎。该行业有时对访问所获得的广泛且正面的媒体报道感到高兴。
这些媒体报道可能影响了许多接触到它们的人，使他们相信反对吸烟的证据仍然模棱两可。
