I am about done with websites lately and their video for lazy people. When I click on a site and a story I want to take a few minutes and read whatever it is that I am interested. This is especially true when I am at work or also listening to other audio. CBS Sports is a big offender. Even more lately the headline brings you a video with no text story at all.

Agreed. It's becoming more of a problem.

Some sites now just play a video automatically (with an ad first of course), and they won't even let you stop the video until the advertisement is complete. It's becoming ridiculous.

Yeah that too. And it scrolls down to the corner if you scroll.

Great call on this, btw. It's irritating. Add CNN to that list.

Plus one... not sure why they want their video played without any ads.

Used to be it wasn't a bad site to check on things and the fantasy was ok. Also, I will not go to the mother ship for any insider crap.
