    so monday i watched an entire tyra episode (yes, sometimes i watch tyra.. i just can't help it) on this pro-infidelity website called ashleymadison.com. imagine my surprise when i open weddingbee today and see an ad that says,"life's short. have an affair. 100% guarantee" i'm a little shocked. i know mrs. bee doesn't pick the ads, but i'm thinking that should probably be the last ad to appear on a wedding website. is there any way to get rid of that?

    Oh I see it too, but I don't think it'll be the end of the world.  It will eventually go away and I think because it says the name in the title of the posting that's why it's still there.  I remember Bee saying something about ads being generated by the content.

    You should email Mrs. Bee (bee@weddingbee.com) to let her know about ads that you think should not be on Weddingbee (those that are in the Google ad box on the top right).  I know this was an issue with political ads, and even after BILBee worked dilligently to ban any non-wedding or political ads, they still showed up.  It is good to keep them informed, as they may not be seeing the same ads that readers see.

    my favorite morning radio show plays a radio ad for this company nearly everyday and it makes me sick! i have wanted to call in to complain, but figured they have no control.

    Wow! It's displaying on the page for this thread for me. That is so inappropriate. Also, funny though. Don't they know they're wasting their ad dollars? ashley madison ad on weddingbee?! :  wedding Icon Razz

    I agree that this company is appalling, but I guess we have the power to just ignore it and NOT click on the link.

    It's sad, actually, that such a service exists.  Oh well!

    We "banned" that Google AdSense ad yesterday. Hopefully, it doesn't show up again!
