I have a bit of a problem with ads being sold into clearly Editorial settings. I think that in this case, it appears this is a paid ad, but because JJ Abrams, the co-creator of LOST is the director of the Star Trek movie, it makes it more "cloudy" regarding whether it was paid for or not. I generally think that it is better to put the words "Advertisement" over any editorial content that is paid for, or else all editorial content might be suspected as being paid for directly by someone. For example, how does anyone know if a box of cereal, laptop, or mp3 player was placed on a TV set for a fee unless there is a disclaimer? Should we just assume it was? Google always has the words advertisement next to their text ads, for example, and magazines and newspapers clearly label what is paid editorial content by putting "special advertising supplement" or "sponsored content," or some other wording. Thanks again for the work you do.
