The New York Times reports that in the mid-1990s, Kirsten Gillibrand, the New York senator who has replaced Hillary Clinton,
'played a significant role on behalf of the tobacco industry in battling the government’s attempts to prove wrongdoing by cigarette makers'.

Nancy Oreskes, George Monbiot, and others, have detailed the links between Big Tobacco and climate-change denial.
