The Tobacco Industry's Climate Counter-Narrative Strategy
Analysis of the institutional pivot from tobacco defense to climate science obfuscation through the lens of Liar's-Heir-Syndrome dynamics.

It identifies the application of LHS phenomena, specifically the 'inheritance pattern' of institutional lying that persists even as the specific product shifts.
