YES, YES ADVERTISERS ARE LIKE A CORPORATION BECAUSE THEY ARE AN F’ING CORPORATION! So is Gawker, Google, Facebook, or any free content website you read. They are COMPANIES out to make a PROFIT by delivering a PRODUCT/SERVICE. Their product is online content. Their profit is ads.

This is not actually true. Advertisers get paid more for click throughs. They also get paid on impressions. It gives them more data to find out which ads are more effective.

You people really have no idea how an online economy works.

You’re paying Comcast/ATT/whoever your Internet provider is. You’re not paying websites that provide you with free content. Someone gets paid to make that content. Someone gets paid to host that website. And those people get paid through ads.

Guess what, jackass. It’s not free to run a website. That content you’re consuming? Someone’s gotta make it. And guess how they get paid? ADS! I don’t like paying for Chipotle, but I do it anyway because I do it anyway because I enjoy the product. Ads are how you pay for things on the internetz.

AdBlock users are like factory owners in Beijing. When they’re causing the pollution, they don’t care that it hurts everyone else.

She literally drove right onto the field. Fuck the parkingarchy

Amen to this. If Hyundai emulates the Lexus dealership experience, they should do just fine.

Let’s use Lincoln as an example of a failed luxury brand. Mercury doesn’t count. They were just Ford’s ugly sister

Today my M5 was being towed by the rear wheels and I was following in my friend’s car. All I could think was “Damn, what a good looking car!”

I love this story. I bought my dream car at a young age too. An ‘01 M5 with 150k miles and a lot of ... character. I don’t care if the next-gen Camry ends up being faster than it, I just think it’s the perfect car for me. It feels right, it sounds right, and I think it’s one of the best looking sedans on the road.…

There’s no real benefit in regulating them, except it literally says “The rich are above the law”.

Yep, this is very true. That’s why there are no other manufacturers building diesels...

Except this is a big story because they stuck by their claim that only 2.0 TDI models were affected. We now know that’s not true. Even when they’ve been caught red-handed, they didn’t turn over all the evidence.

Mexicans are sucking all the money out of america. That’s why we’re in debt! Immigrants and obamacare!

Nobody can escape these. Ever.

This will replace every livery service S-class in Manhattan, I am sure. Will it win a lot of private customer sales? I’m not entirely sure. They either water down the Cadillac image by positioning it as a cheaper S-class alternative. But if they don’t market it that way, consumers will have no competitive benchmark to…

Just one. Purge Skoda, Seat, sell off Lamborghini, Bentley, Bugatti. Keep VW and Audi. Unfortunately, when a company needs to focus solely on profits due to an instance like this, the superfluous stuff usually goes first.

Wow, that was a record fast degradation of this thread!

“examine the contribution that each one makes to our earnings,”... AKA no more fun cars.
