Fark Sells Its Front Page Links -- Does Anybody Care?
People are flipping out because Fark, for the right price, will sell a link to a story/site on their Front Page, but you know what? If had that kind of traffic, I'd do the same thing. I'd probably disclaimer the thing with something that said "(sponsor)" like Brian does on his links. But if you ever thought Fark was an example of journalistic integrity, you've got another thing coming. Link via Waxy.

We're not upset that there are paid ads on the front page. We're upset because they're being greenlighted under the guise of 'user-submitted' articles.
The solution you suggest is perfect. You can guess why they're not gonna do it.
