Can someone explain to me why World Net Daily is running ads against Joe Wilson? Here’s what I keep seeing on various pages at their web site:

“Joe Wilson: Heckler
Watch the video and sign the petition. Joe has got to go. “

And then it gives a web site link where you can go and contribute to his opposition.

IIRC, you are referring to their "google ads" window, which is a pay-per-click handled entirely by google.

Like most websites who use "google ads" they (WND) get "faulty-algorithm-logic" ads in that little scroll section at times.

Google ads uses AdSense which floats ads on its scrollable section based upon keywords that routinely appear on a website (in this case WND has words such as 'Wilson'.

There have been cases when google ads, using AdSense, have automatically and accidentally placed pornographic ads with graphic pics and videos on unsuspecting website ad sections. (they were sued over this)
