Screen the ads to make sure they a ethical..........
This ad is unethical, immoral, and irresponsible. Please take the time to review it and remove it and any like it.
I was scrolling through the articles on the homepage. And saw this ad disguised as a public safety alert. Obviously this ad uses the location of the user's computer to make the article about the town the user is in.
I am a police officer in my town. So, when I saw a news article claiming that my department issued a public safety alert I was surprised. This article is an outright lie. It gives supposed accounts from "victims" and claims that our residents are in danger. The accounts again go as far as claiming the "victims" live in the exact town the reader is in. At the very bottom of the ad, which reads like a news story, it states that it is in fact an ad. However, it's placed in an as inconspicuous place as it can be.
Thanks for your post!
