All due respect to your daughter, I found it highly unethical for news stations to present those PR "fillers" as news. All they were was ad placement at best, and mis-informing people as to their best options at worst. But then, it WAS TV after all, so it isn't like they do much better without the help. Newspapers with any ethics have a policy to fact check all press releases and to rewrite them to be as much news as possible and less spoon-fed PR. That kind of stuff has its place - on the "events page" and that's about it.
