Energizer vs. Eveready

[edit]

After talking about Energizer and the Energizer Bunny, it says "In an ironic twist, in 1991, Eveready Battery Company...".

Are Everready and Energizer related then? Or is this a mistake? - Jax

Energizer used to be known as Eveready Battery Company, which Energizer brand batteries being made by them but then later they where sold and their name was later changed to Energizer Holdings. See [1] --Cab88 01:06, 20 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]


Confused

[edit]

Parody advertisement#Hustler conflicts with itself (he was awarded /wasn't entitled to damages for invasion of privacy and emotional distress) and with Hustler Magazine v. Falwell ($350,000 vs $200,000). — Omegatron 01:16, 31 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Ineligilbe Beer

[edit]

What about the "Ineligible Beer" commercials with the referee calls? I think it was Budweiser who did it, replacing Miller Lite with Bud Lite. Miller responded with their version where, after having their beer replaced, the drinkers chased the refs because they "didn't want that beer".

Simpsons v. Burger King

[edit]

This "suing" does not seem to exist. Burger King made several legitimate Simpsons commercials, and a Google Search turns up nothing. The section also has no source. If no one has an objection, I will remove this. --Jedravent 23:02, 3 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
