Newsvine aka NBC has turned into just another money grabbing greedy advertising site. I am more than disgusted that not only do I have to look at their half dozen ads on every page, but now they are advertising a segment of the Today Show called Jill's Steals and Deals. Newsvine has always had a policy that the Viners are not allowed to advertise within the comments, but now they just broke their own rule. Many Viners are prepared to leave Newsvine permanently because of this. Who knows, they might even ban me for voicing my opinion (if they do, I hope that my friends here will have my back) but someone has to step up and say something about this corporate GREED. It's funny because Newsvine is considered to be a more liberal blog site. They appear (on the surface) to be against corporate greed, but I guess that they're just like the rest of them. Someone said that they think it's just a mistake. Let's hope so. Many Viners have complained, but the moderators haven't said a word. I guess that upper management has a stake in this. Perhaps I'll stop watching MSNBC as well. They are proving to be hypocrites.
Newsvine (NBC) lowers itself to being just another greedy corporation. (Poll)
