Our Office is in "I AM LEGEND"
In the very first scene of “I Am Legend”, Will Smith chases a herd of deer from The Flatiron Building all the way up Park Avenue. And he drives right past the office building that houses Frederator and Next New Networks. I took this screenshot of it. 419 Park Ave South. Beware of zombies.

An article on superior cartooning blog Drawn.ca:

Nite Fite Makes Advertainment Tasty
Look, when Tony Stark arrives stateside after terrorist imprisonment and his first foray as Iron Man, and the first thing he makes his limo driver do is stop at Burger King, the writing’s on the wall: It’s an advertiser’s world, baby, and those of us looking for entertainment are just living in it.
