Current Advertising: At Odds with it's Message?

Isn't this kind of advertising at odds with the Current Community and Current's overall message? I understand that all businesses need money- but is there NO responsible advertising available? No way to increase your ad revenue without selling your website's soul as a billboard for the very same evil industries and corporations that we shake our digital fists at everyday?

I agree with you totally. Besides, how the hell can somebody who's been laid off, "take charge" of anything? Madison Ave. wonks are completely out of touch. We can "take charge" alright when workers of the world unite!

Dunno. It just drives me nuts! Aren't there any ethical companies they could collabo with or creative advertising solutions like offering ads to members (kind of like facebook?)
It just seems so weird to post on all these stories particularly about the failing American economy and the irresponsibility of banks, lenders, etc on a site that is clearly funded by the same assholes we're all bitching about!

Sad it seems that the biggest assholes make the most money.
Usually the nicer you are the poorer you are.
You're asking us to throw out the moneychangers..... - 1 year ago

Well maybe I'm crazy delia. But didn't it feel like 1-2 years ago there were much more community created ads? Maybe it's just a small difference, but I always enjoyed the more subtle credit card commercial before I watch vanguard tell me about terrible student debt.
