...and I can't help thinking that the ad on the right - made up to look like a news update, right down to the "updated 8 min. ago," is horribly wrong. Is NBC so hard up for money that it'll allow its site to carry deceptive ads dressed up as fake news?
(Edit to add: ten minutes later and I can't get the ad to show up again, so maybe it just slipped through the cracks and someone at NBC killed it. That position seems to be filled with a lot of remnant advertising.)
