Press Coverage of New York Vape-In
Monday’s Vape-In to protest New Yorks recently-enacted ban on public vaping has been getting a healthy amount of press.
Newsweek’s coverage of the event takes a mostly positive look at vapers and the reduced health risk of electronic cigarettes compared to their tobacco-based counterparts. It portrays vapers as people enthusiastic about saving their own lives by getting off cigarettes, despite, in the words of Reason Magazine’s Julian Morris, “unsound science or no science being used to justify an extreme restriction on people’s freedom that will harm others.”
There’s also coverage from The Verge, from which we’ve seen several positive vaping-related articles in the past. Typical of other articles from the publication, The Verge’s “Thank You for Vaping: New Yorkers protest the new e-cig ban at the Museum of Sex” is filled with images from the event, including lots of big clouds and close-ups up vaping devices and the people who love them.
Finally, an article from Vice.com sees the event as the beginning of a “fuck-the-man, David and Goliath-style battle” of vapers and vaping companies against government and Big Tobacco.
