You left this part out:

As part of the 1996 California Tobacco Survey - a random telephone survey of households in California - the researchers asked approximately 3,000 12-to-15-year-olds who had never smoked to name their favorite male and female screen actors. One-third of those surveyed named actors who smoked in the movies.

Seems to me that NOT A SINGLE RESPONDENT to that survey is a teen today, so it doesn't support your assertion at all.

If your assertion was that "20-something men used to think Pam Anderson was hot smoking a cigarette in a particular movie when they were teens a decade ago", that link would have been perfect!

Did you flunk Evidence 101 in Law School?
