Prime Video complaint: The blatant promotion (not mere depiction) of smoking

Open 88 views Broadcasting Network Online Services

Filed 28 Sep 2023 by Chris

I have just given up watching the first of the new Prime series The Continental because of the blatant way in which smoking is represented. The close-ups of cast members lighting up, inhaling deeply and exhaling slowly, with scenes of smoke lazily spiralling upwards against a dark background is so frequent as to be far more than coincidental. I don’t know how much tobacco manufacturers are paying Amazon to promote their products but for me it’s a source of anger, disgust and is the ultimate switch-off moment. There are no health benefits associated with smoking and Amazon should not be encouraging it in this manner.
