Cigarette companies SUE Government regarding the stricture MARKETING

Here comes the sheaf of tobacco companies in federal court house in Bowling Green, Kentucky, to put out a new law they say would kill their ability to market cigarettes in the country.

The legal battle can be up to the Supreme Court, as companies seek to repeal a federal law banning the use of "color of labels, trademarks, logos or any other images in the most advertising, among other things.
