It's not just Creepy Dave who's losing advertisers

OneNewsNow reports:
Two companies are expressing embarrassment for advertising their products on the blog of a militant homosexual activist who routinely bashes conservative Christians.

Borden Dairy and Quiznos both say they were unaware they were helping finance a blog that, during the presidential campaign, accused Alaska Governor Sarah Palin of having her first son out of wedlock and falsely claimed she forced rape victims to pay for rape kits.

Borden Cheese and fast-food franchise Quiznos recently purchased banner ads that appeared on Americablog.com, a site operated by homosexual Democratic political consultant John Aravosis, who is currently pressuring the Obama administration to repeal the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) and the military's "don't ask, don't tell" policy.

Aravosis has frequently made inflammatory remarks about conservatives. He once referred to certain Republican congressmen as "GOP Nazis" and called evangelical Christians "America's Taliban."
How does a company not know where its ads are appearing? Isn't it someone's job to monitor the websites where the company's ads are being placed? If not, then shouldn't it be?

Memo to Quiznos and Borden's: I'm available. I spend a considerable time on the web, and I wouldn't at all mind getting paid for it.
