Why are CNN Commercials on Fox News Channel? Ive been watching Fox News Channel and there are CNN commercials during commercial breaks, i.e. Watch CNN on debate night etc. Fox News Channel will also be airing the debate...so why would CNN be advertising on the Fox News Channel?
 
I would bet Fox has nothing to do with it. CNN probably buys commercial time on the cable outlet, which places it virtually anywhere it wants. In this case, it was put on Fox News.

Sometimes this can happen with a syndicated show. One time Dr. Laura's show was in a controversial period, and advertisers were contacted about their sponsorship. The response: we buy generic time slots and placed at random on the schedule.
