Whoops!
Via Fox News:
The Washington Redskins received an early Christmas gift Tuesday when a federal appeals court ruled against a trademark law that has been used to challenge the team’s name.
The D.C. Circuit Court ruled that the federal Lanham Act’s ban on “disparaging” trademark registrations is viewpoint discrimination in violation of the First Amendment.
The ruling came in a separate case filed in 2013 by members of an Oregon band called The Slants, who were refused a registration of their trademark on the grounds that their name is offensive to Asian Americans.
