Why are big business, anti-labor/EFCA ads appearing on DU?
Edited on Fri Jan-23-09 04:25 PM by FLAprogressive
Saw an anti-EFCA ad from this big business, anti-labor front group on DU: http://www.workforcefairness.com/priorities

http://googleads.g.doubleclick.net/pagead/imgad?id=CL3ouvXJspqiqgEQrAIY-gEyCN5Vus5qYHNq

I'm wondering why these are allowed on DU.....

3. I don't think they can pre-screen Google ads.
I think they have to be alerted to them before they can remove them
