I will admit, it seems like a questionable intro (maybe they were going to feature a story about McCain early on, so I can't say it's even taken in context) but let's give credit where credit is due.
What about superliminal? "HEY YOU! JOIN THE NAVY!"

Ok, hang on. This isn't Fox News. This is Fox 5 News. It's a local news show in New York. This is not off the Fox News channel, it's only loosely affiliated. The Fox channel that is on broadcast television is not known for having the conservative/republican message of Fox News cable channel and is best known for having television shows of questionable moral content (see Temptation Island).

I suspect it isn't a McCain conspiracy, but apparently someone at Fox HQ (where such -standardized- graphical Fox banners are produced mind you) wanted to pass on a subliminal idea to the public. McCain doesn't need to give approval for such a thing, but the party political machine behind him surely would have the balls to do such a thing.
For this gaff, I place blame directly on Fox HQ, AND the local station for not properly previewing their material before broadcast. Someone should lose their job for this and Fox should be fined.
PS - A very good friend worked for 20+ years in TV broadcast and 25+ years in military communications, so I do have some base reference to draw on regarding the subject.
LOL... they 'crossed feeds'. WTF does that -mean-? Please explain further.
I don't know who you're addressing, since nobody in this discussion except you has used the term 'crossed feeds' even though you've quoted it.
The intro graphic is a transparent overlay. Maybe they didn't realize they were feeding one of that night's stories into the background channel. Maybe they did and didn't care because nobody would notice it.
Did that clip of John and Cindy appear as one of their news stories that night?
If this were Obama's face on a CBS affiliate, would you be as certain that it was an intentional conspiracy to help elect Obama?
Seriously? I could bearly even see that clip at regular speed... No way I could recognize who it was.
uhh thats why its called Subliminal your brain still sees it.. if you get bombarded with stuff like this it actually has an impact on you.

That's why it's called subliminal. The point is for you NOT to see it real time, but sub-consciously. Even though subliminal messages have never been proven to work, it's quite sneaky.
A messed up transparent feed was fed into a background channel, which overlaid on a foreground channel for a microsecond during station identification broadcast just prior to the main news broadcast, resulting in a simultaneous display of two distinct and unrelated images of Mr and Mrs McCain positioned just right so that they meshed in with, but did not superimpose over the word 'FOX'.
I get it now.
LOL. I'll go put that tinfoil hat on now.
The partially transparent fox news graphic was obviously in the foreground, not the background. The graphic peels away to reveal the entire background video, except for the fox logo in the middle. So yes, McCain's face wasn't quite in the direct middle of the frame so it wasn't occluded. (when the cut is made, the overlay has only peeled away from the right half of the video, but it's on its way out).
The images of John and Cindy McCain were not unrelated, they were standing next to each other on stage in that footage.
The weird thing is not the fancy, peel-away intro graphic before a McCain story, but why there's a quick cut to the anchors instead of continuing that story. My guess is, once again, that they just recycled footage from earlier/later in the broadcast. Or this clip is just a mash up between two unrelated segments.
