Say you're the Program Director for Spike TV and you need to run a Julie Andrews movie. The Sound of Music is for the chicks, Mary Poppins for the kids, but the 1982 movie S.O.B. would be perfect. Perfect, that is, except for one problematic scene. You could cut out the scene, at the risk of damaging Spike TV's hard-won reputation for artistic integrity. But there's a better way out of this pickle:
Strategic Product/Logo Placement To Cover Up The Naughty Bits Will Make Everybody Happy
The TV folks are happy, Pepsi is happy, and the nice folks over at the Family Research Council are happy. Win -- Win -- Win. You could use this approach for all those breast surgery shows that are the rage these days (love that educational programming!) and also by the TV show COPS to conceal the faces of the not-guilty-yet. An idea that cuts right through the clutter, wouldn't you say?
Did you see Lewis Black's attack on HP paying to place its logo in a Jessica Simpson video?
Great minds and all that.

Never leave that until tomorrow, which you can do today.
