Ebert Sticks In His Thumb, And Writes Up This Plum
Per Monday’s Romenesko, film critic Roger Ebert says he never asked Disney to remove his trademarked “Thumbs” from the At the Movies with Ebert & Roeper.
I am discussing with Disney my association with the show that Gene Siskel and I started more than 30 years ago. In addition to my personal involvement, we are discussing the continued use of our THUMBS trademarks, owned by myself and the Siskel family.
Contrary to Disney’s press release, I did not demand the removal of the THUMBS.
