Advertising in general is good for society. It's useful. Display ads are no exception. And the problem I point out above isn't with ads, it's with the incentive of needing high traffic. Many non-ad business models have this problem. And it's only an issue for journalism.
Your incentives should align with your values, so pageviews-centric models like ads, affiliate marketing, content networks, sponsor deals, etc aren't for everyone. And they don't mix will with quality journalism in particular. But they work well for many other types of content.
"all ads bad" is not a good take. Reality is nuanced.
Didn’t say “all ads bad” 
Said display ads result in negative feedback loops that suck for humanity.
Poor user experiences, misinformation, social polarization, biased coverage, manufactured outrage, clickbait…all incentivized/caused by the need to boost display ad views.
