Juul replaces CEO, stops e-cigarette ads

Juul Labs is halting all US advertising of its e-cigarettes and replacing its CEO amid a backlash against vaping.
The largest e-cigarette maker also said on Wednesday it won't fight a sweeping ban on flavours proposed by the Trump administration to reverse a surge in underage vaping.
The executive, Kevin Burns, will be replaced by KC Crosthwaite, an executive from Altria, the maker of Marlboro cigarettes, that owns a 35% stake in Juul.
