Traditional media is using their influence to lead regulation of social media under the guise of protecting people from fake news after having that same prove their bias and even outright falsification of the news; does a month go by where a major news outlet doesn't have to restate a story? Fake news or declaration something is fake news is no different than product placement. News organizations sell authenticity which they use to make money from actual product placement and many companies desire to advertise through certain outlets as they seem some more desirable than others.
At times in my local paper the small print stating a story is paid placement is easily overlooked but these stories tend to only occur on weekends
However we have to admit that product placement in some movies and television shows has approached meme quality to where the products were more talked about than the show they were on.
On a side note, a friend who does stream on twitch has to be explicit when being paid to play a game or even given a free key. they also prevent give away contest from being limited to subscribers.
