Hive account@thegreatwent, I may sound cynical but in your other reply to Hive account@techwizardry, you cite the example of NYT. You really think large media houses like NYT are impartial? Most people don't think so and as a matter of fact, media is not impartial though it's supposed to be.

While allowing display ads may not right away lead to corporate influence, but history shows that if you take money from someone they will surely want to influence how you operate.
