3. Shhh! Don't make a big deal of it
Don't try to draw a lot of attention. We don't want people owning sites to start pulling ads.

4. yeah, it'd be a shame if Newsmax pulled out...
The randomness of these ads' appearances would indicate that it's unlikely the advertisers have time to carefully scan what's being said about them.

Similarly funny juxtapositions of ads against critical content has been going on for years in the Google Groups archives. I don't think it's hurt the ad programs at all.
