Pure ad


Explanation:
純: Pure
広告: Advertisement

Is the writer perhaps making a distinction between pure ads that simply announce the availability of a product and those such as advertorials and infomercials that portray a product as a newsworthy breakthrough?

Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
agree  Kurt Hammond: The katakana refers to 'advertorials' where the product is sold much more gently, as almost a side effect of providing useful content to the consumer.

純広
regular advertisement, normal advertisement


Explanation:
純広(純広告) is the most basic, traditional type of ad designed and placed at the advertisers' own initiative in apparently 'advertising' style, while tie-ups, paid pubs (or アドバトリアル = advertisement + editorial) are designed to look like 'articles' for more "credibility".

are being advertised and ii) in which style = in obviously ¥'advertising¥' manner...
