Support NeoGAF

Surprised it took them this long. Hopefully this will help cut down the sillyness and give proper news sites a lot more traffic.

As others echoed it feels reactionary and late but I will support any efforts to stop fake news site from advertising. Hopefully other websites create efforts that stop fake news site from being shared or advertised as well.

Disturbing. Who gets to decide what news is "real" and what isn't?

Oh snap. This is now a concern of mine.

Disturbing. Who gets to decide what news is "real" and what isn't?

Fact checkers? It's not that hard.

Do you think this is hard to disprove? If not neither should this:

They don't decide whether it is news. They just put in guidelines for the websites they want to be in their advertising network. That is totally fair game.

If other advertisers want to fill that spot, they can do so. But Google doesn't have to. It does not impact search results.
