Not many people noticed the ads on
news on the post around when they were introduced, but a quite a few have been noticing the new front page ads on the latest
news post.
brad posts about being against ads on the front page, as well. But, as we all know, there are some issues you just can't win.

BUT, I have been over both those posts very diligently lately, and have not been able to find it. That means that:
1. My memory is false. It comes from a support member, perhaps, bless their hearts, we found one of those, or I just thought someone said that. And then the other people got that idea from me and believed it was true, too.
2. It existed, but wasn't true, and has since been screened. Since I know comments do get screened sometimes on official comms, this isn't as totally conspiracy theory as I might otherwise think.
It wouldn't really bug me all that much except I really don't like to have been saying something untrue for so long without even realizing it and stopping.

They really are degrading the LJ brand by splashing ads on the front page. Sad.

Not sure what you meant exactly but I'm pretty sure some basic users buy gifts and stuff even if they don't have a paid account. And how many basic users have been paid users at some point?
