Some #100hardtruths on Advertising

A path through the primer focusing on hardtruths about corporate greed, getting eyeballs to content, the monetization of the Internet and Ads.

Advertising and public relations—unlike the news or the governments that they pretend to report on in this campaign—have little to no obligation to truth-telling, fact-checking, well-being, or democracy for that matter.
