Harris' campaign has been making deceptive ads that look like they're part of the news website they're on. Google says that's totally okay and within their terms of service. Can you believe this shit? It's something you expect from a dodgy Russian website offering to sell you viagra in the '90s, not a serious candidate for President of the United States.
Artist's rendering of the kind of people Harris' team look like to me.
It once again confirms my belief that Harris' campaign is run by the dumbest fricking people who ever existed. This was sure to be caught. Some of these same news outlets might even have a shred of a testicle left and publish stories about it right next to the ads. Admittedly a lot of them won't report the store because they would rather cash in off the ads in the short term even if it destroys their credibility. But they can't shut down Twitter and once information is on Twitter that's it, the cat is out of the bag. Maybe they're hoping that voters are too apathetic and r-slurred to care. But this is something that will really piss people off because nobody likes ads to begin with and nobody likes people fricking around with what they read on their phone. It's an incredibly stupid dirty trick to pull. Nixon's ratfrickers seemed crude at the time but they could run laps around these morons.
They think they're "playing hardball" against Trump but really they're just playing tardball. 
I stole this from @Fabrico. He's a cool dude who upkongs my posts a lot so he must be pretty smart.
You should check out his thread. The difference between his thread and mine is that I linked to LITERALLY ANYTHING other than ZeroHedge. Also that line about "tardball" is the most clever thing I've ever thought of in my life.

that's exactly why they won't report on it or do anything to stop it. they have no credibility. they KNOW they have no credibility. it can't get worse and by doing nothing about it they bring in ad money, which is literally all they care about.

I blame this on the disintegration of corporate governance in general. The most valuable thing a news source has is the trust of its audience. But management only cares about looking successful in the short term because they know in 10 years they'll be working somewhere else and there will be no consequences for their failures. They couldn't care less if they gradually destroy the company's brand. Same thing as Boeing.

I question whether "credibility" means anything in either direction at this point
