Qatar pays CNN to display propaganda content

The Qatar Foundation has cut a deal with CNN so that their propaganda pieces, although labeled as advertising, are visible under a CNN logo in the CNN web domain and CNN airs their videos on their network:

Content from The Foundation magazine, Qatar Foundation’s (QF’s) monthly magazine can now be found by clicking here on CNN’s website. 

The Foundation features full-length reports on the most high-profile recent events in the QF calendar, a round-up of the latest news, and in-depth profiles of some of the organization’s many centers, research projects, and initiatives.

Inside the Middle East is a 30 minute monthly feature program on CNN that seeks to capture the dynamism and broad range of cultural diversity in countries across the Middle East. Together with exclusive online articles and galleries it gives a fresh perspective on life in the region that goes beyond the news headlines. It is broadcast in association with Qatar Foundation.

Does anyone at CNN have a problem taking money from the country that bankrolls Hamas?

Is there any question that this will affect CNN's already poor objectivity?
