Young people are more likely to be influenced by cigarette advertising than by peer or parental smoking.
Current movie studio policies to limit tobacco imagery aren't good enough, considering they still have an increase in incidents.
Licensed tobacco retailers in NYS provide an average of 32 sq. ft. behind the checkout counter, the most visible area in stores.
In 2012, there were a total of 2,818 tobacco incidents in top-grossing movies.
Even brief exposure to tobacco advertising influences adolescents' intentions to smoke.
Each year in NYS, $8.17 billion can be attributed to medical expenditures for smoking.
In NYS, 80% of tobacco retailers devote most of the merchandising space behind the checkout to tobacco product displays.
KICK BUTTS DAY is to stand out, speak up and seize control against Big Tobacco! #Tobaccoimagerykills
One in three kids recruited to try smoking by a movie will die from it.
Exposure to cigareete advertising causes non-smoking adolcescents to initiate smoking and to move toward regular smoking.

Exposure to secondhand smoke is responsible for aggravating asthma symptoms in nearly one million children in the US every year.
Each year in NYS, 31.6 million packs of cigarettes are bought or smoked by NYS children.
Half of 2012's youth-rated movies delivered an estimated 14.8 billion tobacco impressions to audiences.
The placement of the colorful tobacco ads is no accident; they are at the eye level of the average child.
Secondhand smoke is a significant cause of illness and death, causing and estimated 50,00 premature deaths in the US each year.
There are an average of 18 tobacco ads displayed per local tobacco retailer.
Smoking scenes in youth-rated movies doubled between 2010 and 2012.
Tobacco product advertising and display in stores gives youth the impression that tobacco products are easily accessible.
With my kids learning more about tobacco in movies thanks to @RealityCheckJLC @Townhalltheater
