I'm guessing the Cheese ad is a result of this deal, a thank you gift from Fox by airing ads promoting CN and it's programs.

Either that, or it could be just your cable/satelite operator adding the ads over the channel's own. I've heard of this before with ads for Nick programs on CN (abeit with the Nick logo removed) and vice versa.
It may be the doing of cable/satellite providers, not necessarily the doing of the networks themselves.
