USA Today Article Review

Abstract: 5 pages in length. The USA Today article from April 16, 2007 entitled "Study: Smoking Ban Benefits Pub Workers" illustrates long-awaited results stemming from Ireland's smoking ban in public pubs. Originally published in the American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, the abbreviated version in USA Today points to the beneficial outcome of a ban that has been in effect the past three years. Mixed methodology (both qualitative and quantitative) uncovered the bottom line: Irish pub workers "are healthier and exposed to far fewer cancer-causing substances" (Associated Press, 2007). Bibliography lists 2 sources.
