When you look at pages on a site like Topix devoted to death, war, and otherwise unhappy events, Google invariably serves either PSAs or wildly irrelevant text ads.
These ads obviously don't monetize, but then who in their right mind would call Google on their unwillingness make bank off of other's misery. That would be morally repugnant, right?
Oh wait. Nope, sorry - I guess that only goes for Adsense partners:
Gee, that sponsored link at the top doesn't seem very "Googly". Kudos to TMZ.com though for recognizing and cashing in on Goog's double-standards. Poor Heath Ledger, R.I.P.
