They of course have the right to do it. But it shows a lack of class and integrity on Facebook's part. Which should shock nobody who's been paying attention.

- ryguytilidie 14y agoI was going to argue that it makes sense to limit ads to classy advertisements as to not dilute their brand. But then I remembered the ads I normally see and laughed at that point.
- JoeAltmaier 14y agoI guess the same lack of class shown by every print media in existance. And all the broadcast ones too. They are all platforms for their owners' views. Why should FB be different? Why is it less classy when they behave like everyone else? Point to one 'classy' media outlet.
- ebbv 14y agoAre you kidding me? New York Times, NPR even Fox News, will host dissenting opinions. And pretty much every media outlet will allow their competitors to run advertising.
- JoeAltmaier 14y agoI guess its my provincialism showing. Midwest papers won't even accept advertising from folks they don't like. And 'host dissenting opinions' is funny. As long as they can make them appear silly or wrong, sure.
