gets free advertising from the news media.

That's all this is about, folks.

There's a guy who got elected president with this kind of free advertising with the network news talking about something that should be a non-story.

There is no point in advertising if the business is going to be closed and thus far, that's the status of the Chik-fil-A restaurants on Sunday. It would be advertising if the news report indicated what menu items were being sold or if there was a sales promotion indicating lower prices, combo deals, etc.

They turned it into a round table discussion about the food and their personal experences with it. Just aonother example of the corrosion of this thing we used to call broadcast journalism.
