It is Good if you compare it to regular soda. While sweeteners are considered dodgy they are far better for you than the pure white and deadly thing that is sugar.

I'm sure you would be in far better physical condition if you drank a can of diet a day than if you drank a normal can of soda.

Side: Good

The commercials an ads say that it will help you lose weight so it must be good for you.

When you want to lose weight then you go on a diet, hence the "diet" in the name of the soda.

So the tobacco ads were true?

Quick suggestion:

Maybe you should change the title to "Which is better for you, diet or regular soda?"

There really isn't much to debate here, no soda is good for you.

I think it's bad really because of the artificial sweeteners that they put in the soda to make it taste different the regular soda.

It can cause the following:

kidney problems

Messed up metabolism

And it can (if mixed with a cocktail)make you actually drunk faster.
