In 2020, The Tennessean, which is owned by Gannett, ran a full-page ad claiming a bomb had been planted in Nashville by “Islam.” Lots of handwringing about the ad after it was published, but no explanation as to how it happened in the first place https://www.nytimes.com/2020/06/21/business/media/the-tennessean-islam-ad.html …pic.twitter.com/m3QJrGMngg

The situations are very different, but in the same way The Tennessean ad violated the paper’s policy against publishing hate speech, the Sweet Tooth advertorials violate USA Today's policy barring ads that "resemble news or front page format of USA TODAY” https://gizmodo.com/netflixs-sweet-tooth-advertorial-in-usa-today-was-beyon-1847049426 …pic.twitter.com/reyAgiANbL
