Fark has Zillow ads posting as Headlines, floating ads, and ads that shift the page from right under my finger as I try to use the navigation. Fark needs to make money however it can, but it's something for a Fark headline to be pointing out some other site's ads issues.

caljar: Amazon makes $31 Billion a year on ads. They really no longer care about selling goods, they care about the ads because that business is much simpler, and lucrative.

Sit at home stock owners approve

Nick Nostril: Weird thing is, I'd be surprised if Amazon doesn't advertise on CNN. Usually, online "news" orgs don't shiat in their own lunchboxes, which is why I don't typically use them as serious news sources.

A good bullshiat artist never shiats and spits in the same spot
