Pay Per Post now requires disclosure

BIG NEWS <snark> from Pay Per Post today. It now requires disclosure by participants that the postings are sponsored postings.

Umm, that’s great, but how come that wasn’t in place from the beginning?

I still do not think this is a good alternative to an ongoing blogger relations program. It might be a useful supplement, but it cannot replace something that comes from the heart or the mind, not the pocketbook. 

Disclosure notice: This post is sponsored by nobody.

Brings to mind those pseudo articles that – in teeny type – say “advertising section” I can be reading happily along, thinking “this is good stuff!” and then I see the advertising line. Even if I keep reading, the credibility of the content drops dramatically, regardless of how well written or presented.
