The tobacco industry paid more than a dozen scientists to
write letters discrediting a 1993 federal report that linked secondhand smoke to lung
cancer, the Saint Paul Pioneer Press reported today.

According to documents released in Minnesota's tobacco trial and reviewed by the
newspaper, one biostatistician received $10,000 to write a letter to the Journal of the
American Medical Association. A former government health official got $6,000 for a
letter to the Wall Street Journal.
