Ad detector says everything on the Daily Beast is an Ad. http://www.thedailybeast.com/

Ad For Ebola

Pull request #24 fixes this by restricting all Daily Beast selectors to the first loaded article.

What's happening here is that Daily Beast is using infinite scroll now, and with the way the rules are currently configured, any article which is sponsored causes AdDetector to warn about advertising across the whole page, pulling the sponsor from the first sponsored article. Also the sponsor detection isn't useful anymore.
