We have received numerous reports of a commercial featuring
The Hand That Feeds airing on late night television. Sightings include Comedy Central and Adult Swim (Cartoon Network), and have occurred over the past 3 weeks. Keep an eye out! Thanks to Darkmoogle and everyone else who sent this in.

Perhaps this is why Mr. Reznor was previous afraid of releasing such a song?
