The Reuters story, Botswana beauty pageant crowns Miss HIV, features an interesting choice of ads to accompany it...
Oops...
Update: In case you can't imagine that there would might be someone who could take offense at the Reuters page; Rightwingsparkle (who found it via Beautiful Atrocities) points out this article about a lady who took offense at seeing a police officer eat a banana.

What I find even more remarkable are the ads themselves. I agree about the earlier, all that, but the ads, look at them! TNYT paid for that?!?

I mean, I can't decide whether the obvious is intended or overlooked by the client. Either way, however, they *work for me*! Ha.

(Message truncated, earlier, sorry, let me try that again without the markters):
Maybe it's a New Age sorta thing: eat a lot of potassium and *presto* HIV just goes away! Maybe the key solution that is being overlooked is that you must EAT A BANANA FROM A MONKEY FROM NEW YORK in order for the magic juju to work! Yeah, that must be it.
