If there's a direct in-line link to who they are, I believe they are covered

AFAIK the FTC is okay with that approach as are the CC affiliates.

Amazon does not care if you mention them. In that sense it is different than the CC companies. And I doubt the FTC would care either based on what I remember of the guidance doc.

I haven't been over there in a while and decided to visit and click on a couple of threads. I guess there is no minimum posting requirements for the bloggers there? I happened to click on Flying with Fish and except for one post on Santa Claus in December he hasn't posted in nearly a year, Why is the blog still there? Looking at others it seems they go a long time between posts and looking further have no comments, at all.
I may have asked this before but does anyone ever get purged from BA?
As an aside I haven't seen Gary's blog in a while. I was under the impression that the term "Thought Leader" was something a poster here decided to call him. I didn't realize that Gary proclaimed himself the Thought Leader.

A BA blog very recently posted how you can get Hilton Gold if you were an Accenture employee. Unless the blog was targeting employees of that company, I always thought that this goes a bit too far. But hey, whatever brings clicks/pageviews/$

At least "The Reward Bo$$" has dropped off - he was by far the most ethically challenged.
