Blocking Video Ads On MSNBC And CNN

MSNBC and CNN have started putting video ads before every news video. I hit the Mute button on my keyboard and wait, but I'd rather see a blank video window. I wonder if anything is in the works from the folks at AdBlock Plus that would blank out these annoying ads. I use AdBlock Plus in both Chrome and Firefox.

I didn't see any ads but that may be due to my location.

I also don't encounter any adverts on either domain. Would someone please submit an issue report when they encounter the unwanted content and post the link in this topic?

I don't see any ads with MSNBC.

I guess this should help with CNN, Can you test if it works.
