If you're curious to hear him outline it in his own words: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nil5_AI0fWs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nil5_AI0fWs Interestingly to me was him explaining how he picked the lawyers to use. He asked who the best lawyers are, and "they" said it's the tobacco lawyers, so he went with the tobacco lawyers, because "they" say the tobacco lawyers are the best.

If it weren't for tobacco lawyers we'd have warning labels on cigarette packs, no cigarette vending machines, age limits on smoking, we couldn't smoke in bars and there would be a massive publicly funded campaign against smoking. Yes, tobacco lawyers are the best.

  I presumed he was talking about these lawyers: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2598535/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2598535/

    No, you've got the matter backwards. It's John Coale, anti-tobacco litigator.

      My mistake, thank you kindly for clarifying. Seems like no matter what side of the tobacco coin you land on, the lawyers in tobacco are quite good.

He means John Coale, anti-tobacco, anti-Union Carbide lawyer, https://bijog.com/biography/john-p-coale https://bijog.com/biography/john-p-coale
