[EXCLUSIVE] Oprah – Hit With Fed Lawsuit Over Chicken Wing Reality Show

August 16, 2014 by in Latest News with 3 Comments

The company states they trademarked the name “WING-MEN” for their online show. However, they say that on July 9, 2014, in a press release on its website, OWN announced the premiere of a scripted entertainment program on its network, also titled WINGMEN, which features two best friends and their “small-town food truck business selling a revolutionary twist on a culinary classic: stuffed chicken wings”.

The lawsuit says that Oprah’s use of the phrase is going to cause confusion especially since it’s based on the same premise, chicken wings.

The company filed suit demanding OWN be found in intentional violation of trademark infringement, an injunction against OWN from using the name for her soon to be released show, and attorney fees.

    of course like your web site but you have to take
    a look at the spelling on quite a few of your posts.
    A number of them are rife with spelling prolems and
    I find it very troublesome to tell the reality then again I’ll certainly come back again.
