"It just isn't acceptable to bleat about killing online journalism without a solution"

There's a very simple one:

Newspapers don't print _any_ ads without vetting them first. Why are they handing responsibility for online advertising over to a third party who clearly isn't doing that vetting even if they make claims to do so?

I'm surprised that Forbes and others who served up malware via banners haven't faced class-action suits from people who had to pay to get cleaned up.
