Advertisers Don’t Want Sites Like Jezebel to Exist::The ‘Brand Safety’ and ‘Suitability’ industries have financially crushed the news business by keeping ads away from articles that its ‘sentiment analysis’ algorithms think will make people sad or upset.
Funny it doesn’t go both ways. Blue-chip companies are glad to rainbow up in June even if they show a history of underemploying LGBT folk and failing to acknowledge gay families. Heck, some of them support anti-LGBT activist groups while still flying rainbws.
I suspected it was about silencing Jezebel even though they are way less radical than the far-right interests they regard as stil brand safe… or are glad to support until the public notices.
