The Beat: PW Blog Receives Letter; Will Not Write on Todd Goldman Affair

Heidi MacDonald mentions at the end of a news and notes section that the Publishers Weekly blog The Beat has received a letter from lawyers representing Todd Goldman on the subject of Goldman's accused plagiarizing, and as a result will not write on the matter. That seems to me kind of alarming. Cartoon Brew has a fresh post summarizing the situation and publishing what they feel are a few approximate relationships between various cartoonists' work and designs used by the apparel designer as his own.

Updated at 9:01 AM MT to reflect some confusion over the term "injunctive"; please note this item would likely not have been interesting enough in the first place to post without that term, but it's too late now

second update from 9:24 AM MT removed one day later due to my not having permission to post
