Fox News (and others) have agreed to product placement during news broadcasts. The head of the studio says it wouldn't be done in a straight news broadcast like the 5 or 10 pm news but other shit like the 10am morning show has two fake MacDonalds (i call it MacD's) cups of coffee sitting on the desk as if they newscasters drink them (but they actually dont because the cups have fake poisonous ice cubes so they dont melt but look good the whole time - just like in real life macdonalds food/drinks).
Here's the link:

Pretty funny because he claims that this ad won't affect the integrity of the news. He claims that any negative mcdonalds stories would still be reported, and if such occured, they would remove the cups from the desk just as they do with other advertisement in the case of a newstory
Just like in this video:
