Detroit News on the Detroit Daily Press

Here's the Detroit News article on the Detroit Daily Press. Also don't you love the new advertising gimmick of putting links to ads (the ones in this article lead to a Staples ad) inside the editorial copy?

That's not really a new gimmick. The Freep's and Det News websites have been doing that for a few years now. The best part is, not only is it aggravating to readers, those ads, which are always in green text, lead to very little revenue, which is why most heavily trafficked news sites don't use them.

Also, they have the capability of putting links in for ad purposes, but they don't link to legitimate things they should, like this story, for instance, that talks about something a blogger on Yahoo! wrote:
