I honestly think it's just the latest trend. Ad agencies pick up on this and they convince someone to sell it to them. It showed up on the celeb blogs first, but it's moving to the regular news sites (FYI, I work for Yahoo! News). I think one of the big early instigators was Apple, with their in-page "takeover" ads.

Get rid of the ads with a HOST file. It works for all browsers on your system, and will work on any operating system.

I've also never seen this website with background ads before. Maybe this is just their gimmick or trend.

OTPs with side bars have been common for years Duncan within the AU market. It wouldn't have anything to do with 'times being tough' ... it's simply News responding to what advertisers request and finding a fair dollar amount to do so.
