I knew that they had promoted MAD-related items, but I didn't realize that
they had been selling ad space. I don't remember seeing any.. when I heard
the story on the radio they said that it was for the first time (and that
was my understanding previously) so.. sorry for spreading misinformation!
I still think it sucks.
