Would you say that when something like a Get Rich Quick ad is shown that it's the highest paying ad that would appear at the time? Just wonder if other ads that would show would make up for the difference. Of course it could be that some readers see the spamy-ness of the ads and wouldn't click them but might click other ads instead.

Just hopped over to Adsense and saw that 9.5% of my earning are Get Rich Quick. I'm surprised to see a little over 7% from politics (and about 4% impressions). I had no idea I was getting so many political ads. I wish we could see the actual ads that were getting served or at least clicked. Thanks for the info! Wow, very interesting!
