I just heard a conversation on the radio that the Obama Administration and the DNC have spent almost $50MILLION dollars on having favorable themes for Obama and his policies written into TV scripts. When you hear slaps at republicans and snide comments about Ted Cruz, they came directly from the White House and the producers were paid to write them in.

They also spent about $15Million on the WebMD website to put favorable comments about Obamacare on their pages so people think its recommended by medical professionals.

I remember one episode of “The Big Bang Theory” several years ago where “Penny” was wearing an Obama T-shirt.
I almost threw a chair at the TV. I haven’t seen that episode in re-runs....either they pulled it or I’m just lucky to have missed seeing it in syndication.

There are a number of articles on it from past years.

And when the Obama administration does it (to promote Obamacare in television scripts) it is likely taxpayer funded propaganda.

I believe that all paid messaging in fictional programming should be required to be disclosed (as with the product placement in movies like Addams Family). It is PAYOLA.

Mad Men has had a lot of messaging paid for by some Democrat special interest groups. NONE of it was discussed in the voiceover commentaries by the producers/scriptwriters. I think even more of the revisionist (60s) propaganda effort can be found in the supplemental history clips on those DVDs.
