Default More Anti Movies from Disney

Mr. Nordengren,
They will not respond, but nor is this a trademark or copyright suit filed
against PETA by Disney, which is the standard when someone uses your images
without consent.

Let me know if you find anything out.

James, I wonder if you've asked Disney about the PETA poster? Is this,
indeed, a licensed trademark/copyright agreement between Disney and PETA
-- or is PETA doing what they typically do, pushing the law to the limit
by stealing Disney property to enlist them in their cause.

All the web research I've done shows that PETA thinks its a good idea --
but I can't find a legitimate Disney source who says they agreed to
license the characters. I'll write Eisner when you can show me that
Disney did, indeed, license this deal.

Disney Goes Overboard

PETA has modified a film poster from the Disney blockbuster Finding Nemo

to
promote its anti-fishing campaign. Disney's cartoon fish, Nemo and

Marlin,
appear on PETA's website and leaflets that read, "Fish are friends, not
food!"
