I disagree with the last comment. This is an incredible idea. McDonald’s is one smart company, and knows how to get their name out without using traditional advertising. They use the most powerful companies to continue their success such as Omnicom and 5W Public Relations. Product placement was a great idea to do, which eventually has given them positive PR.
The Army compromised by modifying the game, "its images of dark-skinned 'terrorists' replaced with 'inanimate targets,'" according to the Wisconsin Network for Peace and Justice.

KCPQ, a Seattle Fox affiliate owned by Tribune Co., has in the past let McDonald's place logos against certain onscreen elements. Fox's WFLD in Chicago has a man-on-the-street segment in its "Good Day Chicago" program called "Breakfast Buzz," which is sponsored by McDonald's and shot in front of one of the chain's outlets, said Judson Beck, VP-general sales manager, Fox Chicago. The chain's logo is on screen during the segment and viewers are told afterwards that McDonald's was the sponsor, he said.

As a progressive/liberal, I've come to believe that the Democratic Party does NOT represent me. I'm registering as a green and have NO PROBLEM supporting Cynthia McKinney.
**** the Democrats. They're no better and not substantively different from the Republicans - Corporatists, all. My new tagline is "Many Republicans are disguised as Democrats."
The only true long-term solution to the government-industry revolving door is a hereditary caste system in which individuals are born to serve either in industry or government, never both.
