Is anyone else tired of credit card shilling?

I'm not completely against it (given I'm a blogger so there's inherent bias even though I do not carry affiliate links), but I'm really sick and tired of posts, especially from bloggers who don't contribute. There are several bloggers on BA where at least half of their posts have to do with credit card shilling. I mean I think it's absurd. I mean like do you need to push the plat card which comes with free global entry when you're blogging about your international arrival from Atlanta? Do you need to have a post with absolutely no content but just featuring your links?

With Gary and Lucky and MMS pushing, I'm slightly less mollified because they actually contribute good content (that's mutually exclusive from the cc pushing posts), but there are some who don't talk about ANYTHING.

What does everyone think?
