Should NYTOnIt Be Forced to Change Its Logo?
Claiming an infringement on its trademark rights, NYT had a parody Twitter account suspended this morning.
NYTOnIt, known for mocking needlessly in-depth stories produced by NYT, was reactivated shortly after its creator Benjamin Kabok made an appeal to Twitter. But in the brief time that the account disappeared, there was an outpouring of tweets by journalists bemoaning the loss:
- “Noooo!”– CBS News producer Sarah Boxer
- “Noooooooo.”– HuffPost‘s Elise Foley
- “We didn’t want the NYT to be THIS on it :(“– BuzzFeed‘s Rebecca Berg.
