Huffington Post: Craigslist Yelp Ad Offers Money In Exchange For Good New York Restaurant Reviews Posted: 14 May 2013 07:09 AM PDT There are countless stories about how Yelp can damage small businesses and countless more about how Yelp reviews aren't particularly reliable. To add more fuel to the fire, a recent Craigslist ad demonstrates just how shady Yelp reviews can get. The ad reads: We are looking for established Yelp accounts with over 50 reviews (please link Yelp account) to write well-written reviews for a restaurant.

But was it important to have her actual weight on the cover, or does the headline strike you as odd? The only time we typically see celebrity weight discussed on magazine covers is when the story centers on weight loss (and usually after a celeb gives birth, like here, here and here). Read More...

Huffington Post: Vintage Ads For LA's Gay Bars Of The 1970s, Then & Now (PHOTOS) Posted: 14 May 2013 07:11 AM PDT The year was 1971: Apollo 14 lands on the moon, the country is still mired in Vietnam, and Donna Summer is just starting her career. For a handful of local Los Angeles gay bars, it's just business as usual as they place advertisements in what few publications comprise LGBT media. Back then, these ads were no big deal. But today, they're a fascinating glimpse into the life of the Los Angeles homosexual of the early '70s. Check out those outfits! The term "groovy guys!" And reference to a mysterious drink called "the manhole," the taste of which we can only imagine. Read More...
