Quotes from this article:

It is not constructive to dwell on events that (occurred) several years ago. It is more productive to focus on what we can and should be doing to address society's legitimate concerns about tobacco. Our approach today is to support sensible government regulations.
Jayme Fowler, Philip Morris' communications director for Latin America, in response to the PAHO report "Profits over People.

We are and always have been in favor of sensible tobacco regulation . . . [T]here is no convincing evidence that the substance of any work or the opinion of any doctor or scientist has been altered or affected by tobacco industry influence
Unidentified BAT spokesperson, in response to the PAHO report "Profits over People.
