I have been barking about this for years. The local "news" productionss have been at least a third dressed up advertising, for years.

Tonight, NBC News national news broadcast, blatantly, got into the money grab.

At the 14;50 mark, a piece on car repos, dressed up as an "economic warning sign", is actually an advert for a car refinancing company. The sales pitch starts at the 16:30 mark.

Watch the piece, and you'll see what I mean.
