That said, if the Chicago Tribune is to be used as a sign of the times, they now have a 50/50 ad ratio (obviously 10% above the threshold). Readers have been complaining, but their recent tabloid edition apparently has tricked many to believe they have reduced the number of ads. So maybe the solution is simply the way we present the ads next to the content? Just a thought. First, I like the blog…I just stumbled upon it today and you’ve got some interesting points.
