http://thecomicnews.com/edtoons/archive/2006/0215/other/01.shtml This comic presents an image of McDonald's mascot Ronald McDonald walking, holding a newspaper claiming that a "Low-fat diet won't prevent disease", quoting only a "study". This is a critique on the all-too-common practice among large corporations of using their own "scientists" to conduct heavily biased studies on their products. The figure of Ronald is exaggerated, with a massive unsettling grin on his face, with his speech bubble containing his logo. The persuasive elements used in this comic make the viewer feel unsettled and worried.
