This is burying the lead. It's not just about showing ads. It is tracking everything you on your TV, whether or not it a roku service

    Lede has a very specific meaning and is seldom used outside of journalism, lead is perfectly acceptable in common vernacular

    Yes, and this was that very specific meaning and was used in the context of journalism.
