Description
Gosh, does the Ansonia Republican Town Committee have ANY legal council!?
Today, I received a glossy political piece in the mail which was produced by this committee. However, it is titled on the front page "Ansonia Sentinel"
GOSH, anyone who has any basic understanding of trademark law would remember that the trade names "Ansonia Evening Sentinel" and "Ansonia Sentinel" were privately owned and SOLD to the parent of the Connecticut Post.
While they closed the Sentinel and annoyed Ansonia residents for decades, that does not mean the name "Ansonia Sentinel" is not STILL part of the intellectual property that comes with the Connecticut Post, now owned by Hearst Corporation... a $4 billion media company.
So, the Ansonia RTC has just violated a Hearst Corporation copyright and will most likely get a cease and desist letter once they receive on of several e-mail with a photo of this mailing send to them today.
GOOD WORK!

I also received this mass mailing as well as many others.
Besides the fact of trying to GO GREEN and save a tree, I was curious to the fact to get the facts straight.
So I called my admin in Hartford moments ago to run it by our legal server via paid membership from our offices. SEE THE ATTACHED PIC FOR TRUE RESULTS.
Time for another Beer maybe….?
Ansonia has bigger fish to fry like cleaning up the mess the Farrel Corp across from the fire house and AB left behind. Then they could get recognized as a city.

There is NO Surplus, it is called the Fund Balance and the GOP is Raiding it; after two years in office they or someone else will have to raise taxes. They have spent an exorbitant amount of money with No plan to replace the funds, how is this good for the City and why are residents happy with this administration. It is smoke and mirrors and in a year or two the residents of Ansonia will be paying for it via higher taxes, plain and simple, just wait.
