Abstract:

A content analysis of major newspaper coverage of Ohio’s smoking ban issues was conducted to ascertain possible media effects on voter preference. In general, news articles presented both sides of the arguments for and against the smoking ban, while opinions pieces favored smoking ban legislation. In addition, most articles focused on issues of human individual rights and tobacco companies’ deceptive tactics of persuasion. Implications for future health media campaigns are discussed.
