Imagine publishing a newspaper funded in a very large part by classified advertisements, embedded advertisements, and obituaries. Imagine me, and a lot of other subscribers, reading only the news in the newspaper and not reading the classifieds or obits. This model actually worked well for hundreds of years until the advertisers found that online advertisement could be cheaper and more effective than printed paper advertisement. My habits have not changed. I don't tend to read the ads in papers or online.
