Summary

Over the past few years, e-cigarettes such as Juul have taken over the market, rising in popularity among smokers and retailers. Originally marketed as a safer alternative to smoking, vaping may actually not be as harmless as first believed. As scientists debate the relative merits of e-cigarettes, policymakers have had to contend with a new reality: the rise in vaping among teenagers. The articles in this book evaluate the increasing prominence and regulation of the vaping industry, and media literacy questions and terms will enlighten readers to how news coverage of the topic has developed.
