I'm looking at a newspaper site which is an actual newspaper (real off-line business) for a small town in Michigan. The text on the page is literally telling readers to click their Ads, with Adsense directly above the text. It's just a regular Adsense account like most people have (pub-xxxxxxxxxxx ID).

Just thought it is was funny, the newspaper doesn't even care about the Adsense TOS.

On the same subject (real newspaper sites), you ever notice how spammy real newspaper sites usually look, especially for small towns, most look like they were built (and probably were) in 1997.

    It's not just newspaper sites, but actual local TV news sites look like garbage too.

      True, I know my local TV/News station site also looks like a retro site from the 90's. Those sites typically have more Ads than text/articles.

      They should go to fiverr & get an upgrade for their sites, lol (j/k).
