Deserved.
The visitors won't see neither good or bad ads if ads are blocked. Unless there is some good or bad ad detector. Assuming that ads are used for promotion.

Many medias have solved this problem by blurring the line between content and the ads. There is not much or at all real journalism. Everything is just a ad in a way or another. However, for example our laws say that ads/ marketing have to be such that those can be recognized as ads/ marketing.
