Petition to the Management of Talkbass to Remove Political Advertising

Sign in to disble this ad
I just saw a political ad saying "Kick Harry Reid out of office" and I realized that Talkbass could be turning into an advertiser's paradise... Please tell me that you don't choose your ads!

they not only don't choose them, they have means in place to try and filter the politics, but the advertisers circumvent these to do it anyway...TB isn't to blame

You're just flogging a dead horse with this thread, it will most likely get deleted by the time I've finished typing this post.
