Very possible. Now when you view one your friend's story it ends with an ads.
I don't want to view a publicity for some products right after I see a video of my friends.
It was all fine when they added optional publicity feeds/story you could click on. Since it's forced, I can't see it lasting.

Teens have grown up watching adblocked Youtube and adsless Netflix. Their tolerance for annoying ads is much lower than people who got used to cable TV.

It seems very plausible that Time Warner was this big media company. It then follows that if DeFranco is the type of content creator they are looking to to bring on then this new initiative with Snap Inc and Time Warner could prove very successful in bringing in young people to their platform.
