Google Tries to Stop Ads From Appearing Next to Hate Speech -
By MARK SCOTTMARCH 21, 2017
Google moved on Tuesday to protect its lucrative advertising business by giving marketers greater control over where their ads appear online, after major clients withdrew spots
that were shown next to hate speech and other offensive material.
As part of the advertising revamp, Google said that it would rigorously vet online content that could be considered hate speech or derogatory content.
That would include giving brands greater say over where their ads would be shown online,
and powers to remove them if companies were still not satisfied.
