Posted by BMTLines on Fri Sep 4 01:04:38 2009, in response to NY MTA Claims SFMTA Parody Infringes on Trademarks, posted by BMTLines on Tue Aug 25 19:15:27 2009. This issue has been getting press coverage in San Francisco and the New York MTA is now backpedaling:in a recent phone interview, a spokesman for the agency, Aaron Donovan, seemed to backtrack: "We have no claim on Muni's icons, we would need to look into the specifics of this case in greater detail to determine why the letter may have been sent," he said. "The images on Mr. Moore's blog did not appear to show anything that would represent a trademark violation against the New York MTA." So to those defenders of the MTA that claim that New York's MTA can lay claim to any letter or number in a circle - well even the MTA backtracked when having to explain it to the press!!! |
