As @SandboxGeneral mentions, you have this completely wrong. In the time I have been a moderator I have never once been told to do anything or not do anything because it would impact page views or revenue. Not one time....but otherwise do nothing that might hurt page views.
If someone is just posting "Apple sucks" over and over, particularly in news threads, that is trolling and we would moderate it if we see it. If you see posts like that, please report them to get our attention.
