>>Political ads are not inherently bad Are they inherently good? In any case, I didn't say they had to ban them, though I think in hindsight they should have considering (as you say) that they could afford to. Since they decided not to, then they should have treated political ads more responsibly. For example, only a candidate can run a political campaign. No anonymous advertisers.
