Protecting the Presidential Seal. No Joke. - New York Times
Topic: Miscellaneous 9:50 am EDT, Oct 25, 2005

You might have thought that the White House had enough on its plate late last month, what with its search for a new Supreme Court nominee, the continuing war in Iraq and the C.I.A. leak investigation. But it found time to add another item to its agenda - stopping The Onion, the satirical newspaper, from using the presidential seal.

The newspaper regularly produces a parody of President Bush's weekly radio address on its Web site (www.theonion.com/content/node/40121), where it has a picture of President Bush and the official insignia.

When two bit corporate lawyers make this mistake I'm not suprised, but the White House ought to know better... (This isn't illegal.)
