Big Oil is using native advertising to "disguise their ads in news outlets" and promote "controversial technologies like carbon capture as climate solutions, portray fossil fuel companies as climate-friendly, or misrepresent their role in the energy transition" finds author @commscholar.bsky.social.
These ads are poisoning trust in media
‘Native advertising' allows fossil fuel companies to disguise their ads in news outlets. A new book argues the practice undermines journalistic credibility.

The submission is in. The argument laid down with utmost clarity. And surely, hopefully, the truth is incontestable: this land and its wildlife need protecting. And then the waiting. For years. Then finally, this month, India's Supreme Court made Saranda forest a sanctuary.
