CBS’s Gayle King Hails Communist China’s Smoking Ban (NewsBusters)

On Monday, CBS This Morning co-host Gayle King gushed over a smoking ban in Communist China that would forbid the use of tobacco in all indoor public spaces, calling the move “a good way to start.” 

Norah O’Donnell explained that “Square dancers, young and old, helped usher in the ban which begins today. They performed outside the Bird's Nest stadium in Beijing yesterday under no smoking signs. The World Health Organization says 300 million people in China smoke. One-third of global lung cancer deaths occur in China.”
