Reading ThinkProgress’s report on RW grifters http://t.co/IumJgaEtXS & I come across this embedded ad.

Seems like NewsMax may not be getting best value from its advertising dollars, somehow…

@aangus: Yes!
Speaking of advertising dollars from this site, I’ve been considering getting one o’ those Bellroy wallets. (If looking at hipster-ish skinny-jeaned young men pick up wallets and walk away floats your boat, btw, check out their product videos. Some of those jeans just scream “laundry disaster” to me, or to be honest “fashion victim”, but I dunno. I do need a small wallet, & I’ve heard that paperwallet ones disgorge their contents perhaps a little too easily.)
But my main point is:
Thanks to John and to the commentariat: the knee update thread, if laughter is genuinely the best medicine, was better than the best shot in the arm…

love when I heard all those republican ads on randi rhodes.

srrsly, this thread is dead already?

@Lyrebird: FWIW, Huckberry, which is a decent site, carries Bellroy wallets, and they’re usually on sale.
I just watched the Norwegian film Headhunters on Netflix. It was decent. Nikolaj Coster-Waldau(Jaime Lannister) was part of the cast. But the real star, not so much for her acting, was the 6′ tall Norwegian actress Synnøve Macody Lund.

billmon must be bored, because that ad has been lurking there forever. Apparently we are blessedly free from political sturm und drang – so yay, today!

@seaboogie:
you think we are ever free of politcal sturm und drang.
you are adorable.
Little Boots
wasn’t this the awake place once upon a time?

@seaboogie: Yes, but not always on a story about right-wing grifters — unless that’s a whole ‘nother kind of targeted advertising!
Little Boots
well, fine, I will post.

Sounds like the junk I get for being on the Breitbart email list. The headlines are always good for a morning laugh.
But that ad: I’m surprised it doesn’t go to that one guy that does 1.5 hour long diatribes about BS accompanied by Powerpoints. I can’t remember his name.

Yo, Caligula.

As long as Noisemax gets clicks, they’re happy, I’m sure. Whether or not the thing that’s clicked is based in any way in reality is totally beside the point.

@Villago Delenda Est: Why I no touchie. I have no intention of giving them any sort of benefit of ratings even if it does get JC revenue.

As a professional writer who could use some extra bucks, I read “they’re hiring” with some interest.

It’s Koch money anyway, which is a bottomless pit, They don’t GAF whether it’s placed right or not. Any publicity is good publicity.
BUT, I love clicking on them, gets some of the lucre going to places they don’t want it to go!

More evidence that the RW has kind of evaporated out and all that’s left are the con-artists and the angry, paranoid people they’re feeding, and feeding on.
