Every ad is labeled Advertisement or Sponsored and sits apart from the show and the headlines. Ads appear on the home page.

C · “Presented by” sponsor

Premium sponsor spot

Ad policy

Ads are always labeled Advertisement or Sponsored and may not imitate show or news content.
No deceptive or misleading ads, no malware, and nothing illegal.
Political and issue ads must carry the “paid for by” disclaimer that Connecticut and federal law require. The advertiser is responsible for following the law. Nothing on this page is legal advice.
We may decline or remove any ad at our discretion.

Editorial independence

Advertisers and sponsors have no say in what is said on the show or published on this site. Advertising does not buy coverage, and it does not change what Reese says on the air.
