What I don't understand is why do advertisers care so much about where their ads go

A lot of times it's more a case of they're afraid that people who object to a specific type of video or show or whatever will notice that a product is being advertised on a specific video, and try and boycott the advertiser for it.

A lot of companies are deathly afraid of customer boycott or negative attention, which is why they'll sacrifice formerly lucrative advertising channels in a heartbeat if they think it will save them from a PR disaster.

In a way, it's not even really the advertisers fault, as much as the fact that we as a culture have given pretty much every psychopath and demagogue a much stronger voice than they've ever had before, and the echo box and outrage engine that is the Internet is constantly spitting out more and more niche special interest groups who are more and more willing to go on the attack over even the most petty of things.
