  5. Hormel vs. CCN Magazine by Whatever+Fits · · Score: 1 · on Hormel Gracefully Concedes On SPAM vs. Spam

    We have a local free magazine called California Computer News who got in a little hot water with Hormel about an article in which the cover of the magazine featured a picture of a can of SPAM actively being crushed by a sledgehammer. They sent a letter (I can't find it on their website) to CCN and asked them very nicely not to show images of crushed SPAM on their magazine. CCN promptly made an apology in their magazine the next month. The whole point about this is that Hormel was a good sport about it. They said they understand the use of the term SPAM for UCE but that they objected to having a can of it destroyed as a frontpage graphic. To this I agree.

    This was handled in a very nice way, not like the snippy letters 2600 seems to get all the time.
