INTRODUCTION On July 24, 2002, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals decided Mattel, Inc. v. MCA Records, Inc. -a case that may have a substantial impact on reaching a balance between the interests of trademark owners of cultural icons and the First Amendment rights of musical parodists of those cultural icons. By ruling in favor of the defendants, the Ninth Circuit held that the use of the "Barbie" trademark in a musical parody (1) was not an infringement of the toy manufacturer's trademark associated with the Barbie doll because the song was not likely to confuse the consumer as to its source or sponsorship, and (2) was not actionable under the Federal Trademark 2 Dilution Act (FTDA) as diluting the Barbie trademark3 because the song fell within the noncommercial use exception.

  • 1 I'm a BARBIE GIRL By: Jim Astrachan
    attorneys at law . a professional corporation I'M A BARBIE GIRL By: Jim Astrachan __________________________________ Judge Alex Kozinski's Mattel v. Universal Music International opinion ribs Mattel's attempt to prevent parodic use of its Barbie trademark holding, "If this were a sci-fi melodrama, it might be called Speech-zilla meets Trademark Kong." This case is a well reasoned opinion in which Judge Kozinski analyses a trademark owner's right to prevent use of its mark in an infringing manner and a third person's right to use the mark to lampoon the product associated with the mark. A trademark is a word, phrase or symbol used to identify a manufacturer or sponsor of goods or a provider of service. Barbie is a registered mark used by Mattel to designate a doll that it manufactures and to identify Mattel as the source of the product. If any other doll manufacturer was to apply the Barbie mark to its doll product it is not hard to imagine that an appreciable number of consumers would believe Mattel was the source. The principal purpose of trademark rights is to avoid this sort of confusion in the marketplace. When another's trademark is used in a way that is likely to cause confusion, 99001.003/51027 1 infringement results. Once infringement is shown irreparable harm is presumed and injunctive relief is appropriate. But as Judge Kozinski points out, trademarks are used for more than product identification purposes. Some become part of our vocabulary and run the risk of becoming generic. He asks, "How else do you say something's the 'Rolls Royce' of its class?" We add trademarks to our vocabulary and we often use those marks to sound contemporary.

Ginsburg* Abstract Some years ago, caselaw on trademark parodies and similar unauthorized “speech” uses of trademarks could have led one to conclude that the law had no sense of humor. Over time, however, courts in the US and elsewhere began to leaven likelihood of confusion analyses with healthy skepticism regarding consumers’ alleged inability to perceive a joke. These decisions did not always expressly cite the copyright fair use defense, but the considerations underlying the copyright doctrine seemed to inform trademark analysis as well.

  • Are You a Barbie Girl?” a Diachronic Qualitative Study on How Barbie’S Image Changed Between 2000-2019, Based on the Brand’S Advertising
    “Are you a Barbie girl?” A diachronic qualitative study on how Barbie’s image changed between 2000-2019, based on the brand’s advertising. Student Name: Maria Nefeli Raftopoulou Student Number: 546048 Supervisor: Dr. Anne-Mette Hermans Master Media Studies - Media & Business Erasmus School of History, Culture and Communication Erasmus University Rotterdam Master's Thesis June 2020 “Are you a Barbie girl?” ABSTRACT In this day and age, more brands tend to engage with inclusive advertising campaigns in order to stay relevant and competitive in the market. One of these brands responding to the trend towards inclusion and diversity is Barbie. The popular doll has been criticized for promoting a single type of femininity based on stereotypes regarding appearance and roles. Despite the social influence that Barbie may have on young girls’ perceptions with regard to female images and roles, the brand has been extremely successful for over 5 decades. In 2012, however, Barbie’s sales have started dropping significantly, a fact that paved the way for Mattel, the manufacturing company behind Barbie, to change the doll’s branding strategy. As a result, since 2015, Mattel aims to break the stereotypical representation of women and ‘to better reflect the world girls see today’, by adding dolls with diverse skin tones, body types and hairstyles. This thesis investigates whether the changes that the doll brand has incorporated are apparent in the brand’s advertising campaigns over the years. Thus, the research question ‘How has femininity been constructed in Barbie’s advertising campaigns between 2000-2019?’ is raised. To answer this research question, thematic analysis was implemented on a total of 100 video advertisements (5 per year) for Barbie by Mattel, in order for the researcher to observe the gradual shift regarding femininity within the time period of interest.

    January 19, 2018 MEDIA, ENTERTAINMENT AND TECHNOLOGY GROUP - 2017 YEAR-END UPDATE To Our Clients and Friends: 2017 was a banner year in the media, entertainment, and technology industries, chock full of deals, regulatory changes, and important copyright, trademark, and First Amendment rulings. From Disney to DMCA; television royalties to mechanical royalties; fair use to the FCC; pink slime to piracy; and monkey selfies to Dr. Seuss. It was also the year of the Weinstein scandal, and the ensuing #MeToo and Time's Up movements, which have already upended the Hollywood order. In our Media, Entertainment & Technology practice group's 2017 Year-End Update, we have identified those deals, trends, and rulings that are likely to shape an equally active 2018. And building off our prior semi-annual updates, we continue to follow the arc of developments in the global streaming video industry, the pace of Chinese investment in Hollywood, and eSports, all of which continue to merit a close watch. __________________________ TABLE OF CONTENTS I.
