NORWOOD, OH—Kicking herself as the words “1 free article(s) remaining” hovered at the bottom of her screen, local woman Margaret Cross stated Wednesday that she had wasted a free monthly Cincinnati.com article on a story about a high school golf team. “I just got pulled in because I know my cousin’s kid plays for St. Ursula, and now, because of that one absentminded click, there are all kinds of fun Cincinnati happenings I won’t be able to read about,” said Cross, who acknowledged she had carelessly squandered her limited chances to access the hottest news from Cincinnati.com and might now be the last of her neighbors to know about the closing of a nearby Red Lobster or any local car accidents. “I didn’t give a single thought to the future when clicking that link. Do I seriously have to wait a whole month before I can read this feature on Greater Cincinnati’s craft brewing scene? It isn’t fair! The worst part is that Parker wasn’t even mentioned in that golf article, because it turns out she plays for the JV team.” At press time, Cross expressed relief after realizing the articles she most wanted to read on Cincinnati.com were free, as they were in fact advertisements placed by Taboola.
