Of course it does. The principle (and the law, for that matter) is the same whether it's print, broadcast, plastered on billboards or posted on the Web.

Sorry, the web isn't governed by US laws. There is no guarantee of free speech in this forum or anywhere else on the web.

The separation of editorial content from advertising is a primary principle of good journalism. If we write only good things about our advertisers, we are in a business other than journalism.

Remember that not all Adsense publishers are journalists.
