Most of their casino ~~postings~~ ads are pretty blatant, but this one is so hilariously outrageous!
That is not a newspaper. That is AI slop masquerading as something useful.

This ad most certainly seems like AI word salad. Their actual news articles appear to be written by someone with a pulse. Maybe. ๐ค
AI written you think? Looks more like the whole article exists to promote the casino, not that the ad was inserted.
Fucking gross.
I would give up all the tech advances of the past 15 years if I could go back to the old internet.
I follow their news updates via RSS, so pretty much every day I'll get an outright casino/gambling ad that looks like an article written to share some topic about the casino industry or whatever. I ignore them after rolling my eyes.
This was the first time I was reading, and re-reading, then laughing, then re-reading again... it truly is a spectacle!
It's like a Linus tech tips video
this is also very funny
I have seen hacked pages that were modified to display casino ads, except when a search engine crawls them.
That's wild. When I worked at the paper, ads had to be distinct and separate from the news.
News? Which news?
Just a small town newspaper.
