Reynolds Tobacco Company at an evidentiary hearing addressing the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania's allegations that publication of the Camel Farm advertisement in the November 15, 2007 issue of Rolling Stone magazine violated the terms of the 1998 Master Settlement Agreement and related Consent Decree entered into with certain states.
