Pop;
This Ellen person doesn't seem to post any questions or answers, only
advertisements for these two sites.
Merriam-Webster Online Dictionary
defines spam>>>>>
[[Main Entry: 1spam
Function: noun
Etymology: from a skit on the British television series Monty Python's
Flying Circus in which chanting of the word Spam (trademark for a canned
meat product) overrides the other dialogue
:unsolicited usually commercial e-mail sent to a large number of addresses
Main Entry: 2spam
Function: verb
Inflected Form(s): spammed; spamming
transitive verb : to send spam to
intransitive senses : to send spam]]
=========
I believe this qualifies.
1. It's unsolicited
2. It's commercial
