My guess is they generate more money w/ the ads than without, and thus it lowers the price of our stamps. Otherwise they'd surely be creamed in the media.
This just in... the post office is going to lower first class postage stamps by one penny.

And in other news, blizzard like conditions expected in the nether-regions of hell...
