The title says it all ....why aren't ads clearly marked as such on the email newsletter ? Just as an example from the latest :

Forum "FORUM - Burson Auto Parts Opens 5th Store in Bangkok "

Now, to me the word "forum" suggests at least a two way discussion, not an advert which then tells you that "This topic is now closed to further replies."

 

I understand that the ads pay the bills but surely they could be marked as an ad ?

 

Because you are supposed to understand that when you read.

It's called native advertising....they know people hate adverts so they disguise them as editorial.

Just dont read if you dont like em.
