The obesity crisis among teens and preteens is causing much suffering
– both physical and mental, yet Channel One News employees are one group
that must be smiling. Channel One has a long history of junk food advertisements.
Junk food ads on Channel One News have made Lisa Ling, Gotham Chopra,
Jim Ritts, Jeff Ballabon, "Casino Jack" Abramoff, Ralph Reed,
Derrick Shore, Kathy Goodman, Joshua Toole and Krystal Greene (to name
a few) wealthier than they should be.
Here is a pop quiz to judge your knowledge of Channel One’s love affair
