Then there is the Facebook “scandal.” Apparently, Facebook, so hard up for advertising, took Rubles to run those horrible anti-Clinton ads. RUBLES! OMG. This particular sideshow about the Facebook ads is probably the dumbest thing ever. We’ve discussed it on the show already, but I guess it will continue as a dumb topic for a while. The total ad-buy was alleged to be $100,000, which is nothing and because of ad targeting would have zero effect on anyone.
In fact, if the Facebook targeting mechanism works at all, only ads “you want to see” would have been served to people who want to see them. That’s the idea. Thus a Hillary supporter would see no anti-Hillary ad. Or am I missing something? |
