Whats with the rght winger Joe Pags advertising on DU?
Geez. Pags has got to be one of the fastest talking right wing idiots of the State of Texas!

Why would DU let him advertise?

1. Google serves up the ads. Where's the ad located, and can you snag the URL
from it?

3. It's not as though DU picks and chooses which ads are displayed
Edited on Sun Oct-14-07 08:22 AM by Catch22Dem
It's a service that displays ads based on categories and similar interests. It's not always 100% accurate.

ON EDIT: And with Firefox, I haven't seen a single DU ad since we started showing ads here. I accidentally opened DU on Internet Explorer the other day and thought I was on the wrong website.

7. Nice clean pages now, eh?
I love it! Back at that link I sent you should be another link for an adblock updater. It's also nice as it looks out for new ad sources so it will continue to block even when advertisers get more crafty. :)
