was asked to evaluate the presentations and the

account. I then made a recommendation as to what I

but the lottery play is fairly widespread. And
although there may have been some areas in which
heavier emphasis may have been placed -- we also had
to operate under a rather restrictive policy
concerning who could be targeted and how they could
be targeted and sort of the creative executions that
could be done. And it also dealt with distribution
and any other kind of marketing activity.
Q. So there were restrictions on who the
target market could be, or how they could be
targeted?
A. Both.
Q. Both.

A. Well, I don't know the -- the source of
the restrictions. I -- I assumed at the time that

statutes that were put into place in beginning the
lottery. I don't -- I don't really know how they
were generated; whether it was under legislation or
the specific governor~ ~ don't .remember the

Q. Do you remember, for example, what target
audience they were restricted from advertising to?
A. Minorities. There was not supposed to be
any particular emphasis to minorities and no one
under the legal age of obtaining a lottery ticket.
Q. There are different lottery games in
Florida -- right? -- like scratch-off and Play Four,
the regular weekly lottery, the regular weekly
lottery? Are those marketed in different ways?

General was interested in a potential problem with
the way that Southern Bell was operating in various

negative option. Meaning that they would say, "we

tell us that we should not do it." And as I

told him personally that I don't believe'that that
would be true; that there certainly could be some
things that would allow a negative option, in my

restrictions are appropriate in
circumstances?
A. Yes.
Q. For example, the
certain

lottery issue where the
State of Florida wanted to restrict targeting
minorities, do you think that was appropriate?
A. No.
Q. Why not?
A. I think that particular restriction was
one that was more sort of a political issue than a
marketing issue. It assumes that minorities are
somehow more vulnerable, and I don't agree.

Are you going to testify just basically
on everything that's out there and what's been done?
A. I don't know the specifics of what I will
be asked to do. To a large part it will depend on
the questions that are asked and, I presume, where I
fit in in the case. I don't know specifically what
I'll be asked to do. I'm aware of the advertising,
marketing, promotion of cigarettes, I have a
background in the area. So I am not sure exactly the
issue that I'll deal with.

A. Yes. And more in particular, the
theoretical rationale for each, the literature on
each side. I often ask the individuals to be able to
discuss their opinion and back them up in some way.
So I really feel that this is a very important issue
in the world of advertising, the future of marketing,
and I think it's important for students at that level
to have an understanding of various sides of the
issue.
Q.
Do you think that the current government
restrictions on cigarette advertising are sufficient
for the objectives of the government, or do you think
that further restrictions would be warranted?

the objectives of the FTC may, in fact, be different.

A. And I'm not sure of all the objectives of

a difference of opinion in various branches.

in place, which were implemented by the~FTC,
sufficient to reach the objectives of the FTC?

RICHARD W.
A. NO.
Q. Then why is it your opinion that you hope
that the liquor industry would not advertise their
product on Saturday morning cartoons?
A. I think it would lead to Zurther
potential restrictions across a broad range of
product categories. I think it would incite
political response in an area where there is a great
deal of research that suggests that the restrictions
that we have right now are too restrictive.
Q. If advertising, in this instance, would
not influence those kids in any way, then why would
you expect that response?
A. I've been working in this area for
approximately 22 years, and I can see that things far
less -- far less easy to be publicized have been used
to request more restrictions on commercial
speech.
think it would not be prudent on the part of the
liquor industry to do that. First of all, it's not
their target market. Second of all, it's simply
going to get a number of groups, including parents
and everyone, upset. And those people may be their
target market. So it wouldn't make any sense in

253
RICHARD W. MIZERSKI, Ph.D. EX BY MS. COLEY

5 Q. But you do admit that there are certain

7 being restricted?

12 advertising.

What is your opinion regarding the

A. Well, it would depend on a number of
factors that we have talked about before. The
audience that you're trying to go after to ultimately
purchase or consume your product. It depends on the
social environment, the ~olitical environment, the
individual's experience, and the product itself,
where it is in the product life cycle, as well as

maybe some other factors as to whether it's a service
or good. So it would really depend. But there are
some studies, a number of studies, that have been
done looking at mature product categories and their
influence on the public overall in terms of the
ability of advertising to expand that market.
Q. And when you talk about product life
cycle, could you explain that a little bit more, what
that means?
A. There's a general agreement that products
go through various phases, and we call that the
product life cycle, and the phases are from its
introductory stage through to a potential declined
stage.
Q. And you also mentioned mature products.
What is a mature product?
A. That is a stage in the product life
cycle.

A. There are a ~umber of factors that we
often look at. We look primarily at distribution,
the degree at which distribution has been developed.
We also take a look at the competitive atmosphere,
how many brands are in a category, the kinds of
brands that are in a product category, the
opportunities to come up with new uses of a product.

Q. What is the purpose of advertising,

decline stages there is a tremendous amount of
competitive pressure for shelf space. Particularly
if we're talking about consumer packaged goods. I

well. But to the extent that you need to have
placement on the shelf, that is going to be every
placement that your brand has, there's a placement
that a competitive brand doesn't have. •
Q. Is a placement on a shelf generally

business or all businesses?
MS. COLEY: I want to start with all businesses.
THE WITNESS: That

has varied over time.
COLEY:
Q. What about the cigarette business?
A. I presume that has also varied over
time. Nowadays, whatever consumer packaged good
category you're talking about, there's increased
effort by the retailers to get some sort of retail
promotion or some payment. And those can be done in
a broad range of ways. They may be directly tied to
something of what we might call slotting fees, they
may be promotion, funds that are offered that somehow
are -- act as an incentive to get more ehelf space.

buy it at the retail, they can't buy it. So that is
the critlcal component when we're talking about
pretty much all products, unless they ca~ be
delivered in some fashion that can bypass a retailer.
Q. So, for example, when I walk in a

for them, and I'm making that assumption, but if

there?

A. Typically, we talk about children are
those individuals under I0 years old, and adolescents
are sometimes a relatively ambiguous terminology, but
often they are broken down into several age
groupings.
Q. Like what?
A. I0 to 12, 13 to 14, and maybe 15 to 17.

I don't remember any specific category

and a number of other syndicated services that
provide media and product information broken down by
various ages. And, for example, in the case of
Simmons and Media Markets, we're talking about
beginning at 18. Although Simmons does have and has
had for some time, as well as perhaps some other

suggests the discussion -- the debate that is used in
terms of publicity can be very effective in terms of
augmenting that material.
BY MS. COLEY:
Q. What kinds of information do you think
that kids should receive regarding smoking that would
aid them in not smoking, not taking up smoking?
A. It would depend on several' things. First
of all, it would depend on the age of the child. It
also would depend on where they are in terms of that
process, uptake process you had suggested yesterday.
Q. If you had $1 billion given to you by the
State of Mississippi and they said, "We want you to
design a campaign targeted at people under the age of
18 to keep them from smoking, and it doesn't have to
be limited to advertising. I mean, you can include
school-based program, anything that you would include
in a program to keep kids from smoking," where would
you start?
A. I'd start young, very young, and perhaps
their first interactions that we Can provide health

severe consequences of smoking.
MR. YERRID: There's always fathers.
THE WITNESS: And I think that needs to be continued
through the whole process of pregnancy. "Certainly
when the child, then, has the opportunity of perhaps
even at home -o I'm certainly not against
anti-smoking campaigns. Think they can be useful.
But one has to be very careful about the kinds of
creative and the kinds of strategy we use. So it
would have to happen very early.
Then as the child gets older, and perhaps
goes to preschool, I think that also has to be an
important part. To the extent they go to preschool
before they go to regular classes. I think that is
another time in which that has to be provided. I
think we also have to work on the homemakers,
caregivers, those individuals. The household,
brothers and sisters. That whole environment that it
takes place. I think there also can be campaigns
that would be aimed at where children get together
for entertainment and sport and that kind of
approach. And so I think the use of trying to make
it rather pervasive b~.~nderstanding that to get
smoking to zero is probably not a realistic goal, at
least in the short run, but starting very early.

focus groups that I did for the FTC, that young
children don't really value the health aspects as
those who are a little bit older. In fact, they seem
to be much more sensitive to things like the social
aspects of smoking. And then again, as people mature
and get into their late teens and certainly start
getting into the young adulthood, shifting towards
the health information. Now, I think health
information should be out there. I think people need
to be provided with the information to make a

I think probably the -- what I've seen, ~t least in
my research and what appears to be a fact of it
having an impact is publicity, making it newsworthy,
making it come out of sources of what children can
identify is clearly some messages from an adult. I
think the more it can become newsworthy the more it
can have an impact.
Q. You mentioned the information about the
health effects of smoking for teenagers doesn't seem
to have as much influence on their smoking behavior
as, say, the social aspects of smoking. Why is that?
A. We're not sure why it is. People
hypothesize that they're young and they do a cost
benefit analysis, whether it be a real reasoned one
in the sense that they really talk about it and think
about it. I think probably all smokers go through
the process of making some cost benefit analysis.
But they weigh that aspect of health consequences
less than people who are older and view the benefits
much more strongly.

and either get people to quit smoking or keep young
people from smoking, from starting to smoke?
A. I've looked at some of the information,
yes.
Q. Do you have an opinion on the
effectiveness of what they've been able to do?
A. My recollection is a concerted effort in
the anti-tobacco movement has been somewhat recent up
until -- not too many years ago individuals could get
a pack of cigarettes no matter what their age if they
had a note from parent or someone else. So, I mean,
that right there is a problem, when you have
distribution available to children. There has been,
I think, an absence of a lot of programs in that
area, in Mississippi, until recently. I know there
are now some school-based programs. And presumably
some others that I don't know about. So Mississippi
has been a little bit late in this area, in terms of
a number of issues, and &ppears now to be more
sensitive to the importance of that.

some interest in youth smoking and its impact. There
have been school-based programs for quite some time
as well as programs at the university level. And
these would include not only tobacco but also
alcohol. Because, increasingly, people are seeing
that you have to have a reasonable message about all
of these adult products.
Q. What do you think is the best way to keep
kids from starting smoking?
A. It would depend on the age, once again,
and again, a lot concerning the particular social
strata they're in and the incidence of their parents
and friends and everything else smoking. As I
remember, your question is what's the most important
thing? The most important thing, in the short run,
is to make sure they can'.t get access to the
cigarettes.

involved and procedures one needs to go through in
terms of making sure that the individual buying is
the individual who -- you know, who has a certain
age, and what sorts of identification wo~id be.used.
Q. Do you have an opinion on the most
effective way to have a store clerk comply with the
restrictions on underage access to cigarettes?
A. Well, it has to be enforced. In other
words, there has to be some identification as to the
age of the individual, and if they don't meet that
age criteria, there should not be cigarettes sold or
provided to those people.
Q. What is the clerk's incentive to not
cigarettes to the person under ~age?
A. It would depend on the state we're
talking about. As I remember, Florida, there are
some rather severe fines. And there may even be
efforts to take away their license to sell that
particular product.
Q. And that would be a punishment for the
owner of the store.
Right?

a part of the family. That adds, even if there
isn't, the restriction of taking away of selling that
product or perhaps alcohol or perhaps some other
adults-only product is one that is often'passed
along. In other words, if that is a restriction to
stop selling that product, there is an effort made by
the store manager or the store owner to make sure
that the clerk complies with it; otherwise, they're
in danger of having a significant portion of their
income taken away.
Q. Would that be a more effective means of
restricting access than, say, just punishing the
clerk for selling the cigarettes?
A. I would have to take a look at the
performance of each. I think probably the first line
would be the clerk. But if there are repeated
offenses and it appears that all they do is put a new
clerk in, then -- then perhaps some other
restrictions may be looked at. I don't know the
incidence in which that happens. I think it has

RICHARD W. MIZERSKI, Ph.D. EX BY MS. COLEY
A. Well, beyond what I was saying before,
that how it might have a general -o affect a general
tenor about how society views smoking. But I o- I'm
trying to think of those areas in which children
would smoke and whether they would be restricted, and
I guess I'm at a bit of a loss as to where that might
be. Generally, it would be in the home or it would
be in the backyard or in the basement or in the
park. And I -- I would imagine most of their smoking
is done in areas where it isn't regulated, nor could
it feasibly be regulated, unless you stop people from
smoking anywhere.
Q. Do you think that if a child grows up in
an environment in which it is socially unacceptable
to smoke cigarettes, that they are less likely to
take up smoking, all other things being equal?
A. That's pretty broad, what the environment
means. But clearly, if you're talking about each
stage in the various social -- socialization agents,
we might say -o for example, if the parents don't
smoke at a very early period and, later on, if their
friends don't smoke -- in fact, if ~ha~'s what you're
talking about in terms of. an environment, it
certainly is one in whichit has been shown has some
impact on whether they smoke later in life.

directed at kids?
A. " I'm not sure that's the way it would be
used. In my Journal of Marketing articl~, I alluded
to the fact that it had been used in anti-tobacco
campaigns. Most recently, Lucy Henke has done an
article in '96, I believe, or at least a proceedings,
concerning the use of Joe Camel in anti-tobacco
efforts, in particular by parents and some other
socialization agents. And, of course, anytime there
is any discussion of tobacco in a news media, almost
invariably it's Joe Camel, and sometimes also the
Marlboro Man. So there's an incredible amount of
exposure of Joe Camel, whether it be in cartoons,
characterizations, political cartoons, on broadcast,
and it's extremely pervasive, and wanted to be able
to kind of talk about that process.
Q. How does Joe Camel work in the
anti-tobacco area, how does it aid?
A. Well, apparently it's -- it's an imagery
that has now become sort of like the black beast of
the anti-tobacco forces, and I guess individuals who
have a negative feeli.~g, about tobacco, particularly
cigarettes. And as I laid out in theory that I have,

Mizerski, have you done a review of

A. Yes, I have.
Q. Which ones have you looked at?
A. Probably all of them. The reason I say
"probably" is these change monthly at some sense,
whether we're talking about the use of price or
warning labels or restrictions on distribution or
whatever. But I have a pretty good view up to, I'd
say, sometime in '95 or '96.
Q. Do you think that the price of a pack of
cigarettes can deter people from smoking; for
example, if it's way too expensive?
A. In and of itself, it may not. There may

Q. The studies that report that the
advertising restriction has been effective on
lowering youth initiation rates, why has that
not been accurate?
A. I can't cite a specific one. There
aren't many. And, of course, these analyses
sometimes cover the '60s or the '70s or a period from
the '50s through the '90s. It would really depend.
Some are studies that look at a before and an after,
others look at longitudinal data. You know, there
are very, very many studies. I'm sure there's
probably close to maybe 50 or more studies that have
been done on this area, maybe more, and so it's very
hard for me to remember ~pecifically the rationale
why. But they are certainly in the minority and tend
to have problems in terms of --

the problems.
Q.
A.
299
RICHARD W. MIZERSKI, Ph.D. EX BY MS. COLEY
think that was your question, what are
Yes.
-- accurately measuring tobacco use.
Sometimes they'll be based on just bulk tons or some
amount of tobacco over time. Often they'll be based
on shipments instead of actual sales. Often the
aspect of advertising may be based on figures that
have since proven to be incorrect. Often they do not
take into account other factors, such as maybe the
income level of the social class or price of the
product or other aspects that could account for it.
Q. What is the best way, in your opinion, to
determine whether or not an advertising restriction
is effective on smoking initiation rates?
A. Well, we talked about this a little -- a
little yesterday, and I think my discussion at that
point was I don't think there is one study. You
know, there are -- there are a lot of studies out
there, and I think we need to build on those
studies. And it would take such things as a
longitudinal data, first of all. Which means we
don't -- we try to track.people through that whole
time where they're doing 6he uptake. We -- to the
extent we can accurately measure the various factors

that might have an impact on those individuals that
we know already. So we need to put together a great
number of studies to come up with an accurate
evaluation. And in some cases we've come close to
that, but very -- very few cases. The overall,
certainly the mass that one looks at, suggests
that -- and shows that advertising has no impact,
restrictions have not had any impact in terms of
influencing people to stop, that long-term trends
have been around for quite some time. That if we
look at other product categories, like alcohol,
there was no advertising and advertising was
introduced, sort of the opposite of what you're
suggesting, but nothing happened to consumption or
uptake. So really, again, sort of an analysis has
be done, and I'm not sure one has been done yet.
Q. Have you done a study of the anti-smoking
iniative in the State of California andhow it's had
an effect on smoking rates or smoking initiation?
A. I reviewed the evidence in there, yes.
Q. Do you have an opinion of the

rates in teenagers?

anti-tobacco campaign, you have to take into account

Q. Have you looked at the effectiveness of

A. Yes.
Q. Has, in your opinion, the California
campaign been successful in reducing smoking rates
among adults?
A. The smoking rates have been going down
for quite some time. Although, as I said, there have
been some changes in the phraseology identifying
smokers. One of the problems in the California area
is that it does not incorporate some of the more --
what I would expect to be more profound impacts, and
show it has had any impact. It was
