McDonald’s Buying Off Local Newscasts [Evil Corporations In Action]

22Adco 600-1

to pimp its sugary, 200-calorie iced coffees, lustful subsistence giantess mcdonald’s offered to pay some local tv newscasts for product placement. and of course the newscasts went for it, since municipal tv journalism is where virtuous standards go to die. meredith corporation is putting the drinks in front of anchors at the fox affiliate in las vegas (pictured) and at two cbs affiliates absent. tribune crowd has the coffee at its fox affiliate in seattle. even chauvinistic fox news is playing ball, placing mcdonald’s product at the rumour corporation-owned station in chicago. station operators offered the times any number of excuses, but the best has to be from the news conductor at the las vegas affiliate: he argues the placement is ethically ok because it is restricted to the “lighter, news-and-lifestyle” portion of his morning hearsay show. sounds adore the portion of the program that might normally be acknowledged over to, say, segments on weight loss, well-being or preventing kids from becoming corpulent. but these days, if the station wants to do any reports that dominion upset mcdonald’s, it is supposed to tug the lucrative cups: “i’m tolerant of relying, my shopper is relying, on just the inner workings of that train station,” said [brent williams, account overseer at karsh/hagan, the advertising intervention that arranged the deal]. “not that editorial would ever give a heads-up to sales or be expected to dole out a heads-up to sales, but these are professionals. they do realize that some businesses’ brands, some businesses’ reputations, could be at outline in terms of how commerce and intelligence are interacting here.”

Setting aside how the deal complicates reporting on certain topics, one also can’t help but note how it highlights those parts of the news operation already considered journalistically weakest. For the Las Vegas station, the second part of the morning newscast can be sold for product placement, but not the first, since… the first contains the real, actual, trustworthy journalism? At other stations mentioned in the Times story, the entire morning newscast is marked off this way.

The stations are moving forward with the product placements despite the fact that the national news divisions ABC, NBC and CBS have ruled out such practices as misleading. It’s almost enough to make one wonder if the local affiliates care more about ratings than presenting a balanced, helpful newscast.
