A debate at an advertising conference reveals the frustration of publishers who see their revenue evaporating due to mobile ad blockers.

The hosts argue that the traditional "church and state" separation between editorial and advertising has collapsed, as even prestigious outlets like The New York Times integrate sponsored content into their main feeds. They contrast this with the No Agenda model, which is supported directly by listeners to avoid corporate influence.
