    Google bans two websites from its ad platform over protest articles
    The two sites, ZeroHedge and The Federalist, will no longer be able to generate revenue from any advertisements served by Google Ads.

    A Google spokesperson said in an email that it took action after determining the websites violated its policies on content related to race.

    I'm sure Putin can afford to keep them going though.

    And not a single link to an infringing article.

    How woke of them. Good thing we have Google to usher us into this new age animal farm.

    I can practically hear the cheerful gurgling of soy from where I am sitting. If I had to guess it's because they both made the terribly racist connection between these riots and rampant violence and destruction of businesses. How unwoke. Wake up sheeple everything is racist!!!!111!1!111

    If you support Zerohedge you facilitate Putin's talking points. This has been obvious a very long time now.

    It should not take the commie lefties to point this out.

    Interestingly google took into account the comments section when making the decision to ban them from their advertising platform.

    it's the precedent Donnie's executive order wants in any case. Hell, might even be the intention to send a message to the WH.

    Fox is off the charts with it, that's the point. Zerohedge is a pro Russia, pro Trump site and Trump's new legislation means all the delcious hate comments will go, so basically that's Fox's comments gone too.

    And politics in ET, more trouble than its worth soon enough.

    Over the years I've seen a bunch of news sites get rid of comments for
    obvious reasons.

    Ultimately when the gatekeepers of the internet get big and powerful they call the shots.

    Even godaddy wont host certain websites they deem whatever..
