What the hell: Forbes advertising UN Human Rights Watch are terrorists - Lemmy.World

Just saw this advertisement on a Forbes article. Someone is paying to equate UN Human Rights Watch workers as HAMAS terrorists. I guess that explains why Israel is so comfortable bombing aide workers. I’m surprised the Israel lobby (if that’s whose sponsored this) thinks it’s worthwhile to sink this low… and that Forbes is allowing it on their news website What a world…

Forbes vets its own ads. Many people there had to think this was a good thing.

It’s not a random ad from another company

Forbes vets the ads? Lmao link me proof. It’s probably a programmatic buy based on OP browsing.

Forbes accused of selling MFA media to brands under guise of legitimate ad space

A damning new report alleges that hundreds of brands, including Microsoft, Disney, Ford and Johnson & Johnson, were for years misled into believing they were buying premium ad inventory on Forbes’ website when they were in fact buying space on a secretive, spammy subdomain.

Both are forbes.com…

You gonna link to their vetting proof? They vet direct buys probably, not programmatic

The article you linked is them scamming multinationals by faking metrics of ad campaigns they helped design , and that www3 subdomain is gone, apparently it only mirrored ads they ran on the main site.

The links are easy to find and you get directed to the sales department if you try

If you understood the media this wouldn’t surprise you. I try to point people toward real media literacy.
What are some good places to start getting acquainted with American politics in as unbiased a manner as possible? - Lemmy

What with the recent development in the supreme courts I’m feeling a necessity to do what I can with the time left, politically. However, aside from the most rudimentary basic terms I am basically completely ignorant to all politics on a state and federal level, and while I’d love to sit here and self loathe for my idiocy of not learning before it was important I need to start catching up and figuring out what I should be voting on and why. Of course I’m deathly afraid that indiscriminately googling will lead to me learning biased and compromised knowledge from sites that I don’t even know are biased, ending up with a skewed and inaccurate understanding. While I know I could still be led astray by you guys, I figured it better to ask somewhere like here than to just wander off into the internet, so can anybody help me and people like me to start getting equipped?

My friend, I said I was surprised at the tactics not at the goal.

I’m tuned in to situation, but appreciate the links

Wasn’t Forbes also the one who made a recent article about dealing with crappy wages and inflation by skipping breakfast/lunch to cut costs?

Or maybe that was Bloomberg

If you’re surprised by fascism coming from capitalist ideologues, then I have bad news for you…

Yeah why not let the UNHCR handle it? Why does there have to be a special, specific UN body handling Gaza rather than the usual refugee support body?

Not sure why your getting downvoted, this is a pretty legit question.
