"Let me try to peddle some malware to you, you don't want me to go hungry, do you?"
- lnx01 7y agoYeah... So, this is a South African independent online-only publication for news. They also have an investigative arm. Investigative journalism is in the dumps in South Africa at the moment; on the one hand it's due to simple lack of anyone buying hard copies anymore, and on the other due to the powers that be (owners of publications) discouraging investigative journalism because it can get a bit close to home sometimes. I'm sure they're sorry about the ads, but they have to something. I donate a couple bucks to them every month.
- rnotaro 7y agoI personnaly thought it was a clever way and prefer that than an AdBlocker Wall. You can either : - Buy a no-ads pass. - Disable your AdBlocker - Click on "Naaah...journalists should go hungry."
