			Once again, worth noting that despite multiple BuzzFeed articles now that attempt to directly connect Facebook engagements to revenue:
 - 
		
			The numbers BuzzFeed reports do not indicate strong traffic in the context of the rest of the web, or strong revenue medium.com/@aramzs/the-media-is-a-business-and-journalism-is-a-job-get-it-together-c1ba78a4df95#.idh9z9pxi

			Also, I dunno... if you find a common AdSense ID, shouldn't you call up Google and ask why they haven't turned it off? I'd like to know that
