Q: News videos only play ads, then skips to the next video

Ever since the 10.0 update to Safari, I cannot watch news videos. What happens is the video plays the annoying advertisement a couple of times, skips that news video completely to the next news video, plays that advertisement a couple of times, skips the news video to the next...etc, etc... Has anyone else had this issue?

    Apparently that "news" site has reached the epitome of its profession. All advertisements, all the time.

     

    Post its URL so that we can figure it out.

    Hi John,

     

    Thanks for the reply. I'm not sure how, but it seems the issue has been resolved. I went to every news outlet I read and when the videos play, they are now playing normal...advertisement then news. I went to them all yesterday and this was not the case, even after re-booting to try to resolve. MSN, Washington Post, CNN, OneNewsNow...I went to these off and on all day and all had the issue, so I was convinced it was the Safari update. Sorry for the 'cry wolf'!
