grimm

I hear Disney's lawyers are going after the descendants of Wilhelm and Jacob Grimm because of the Grimm's use of Snow White and other Disney properties.

Well, Disney released Snow White in 1937, and the Brothers Grimm version had been published in 1812.

You realize that it's illegal to copy Disney movies even though they were based on Grimm fairy tails, right?

Stefan Grimm has just given you a peek behind the curtain.

I suggest that Grimm is popular for good reason.

If you're going for analogies: Monsanto has taken a public domain item (say a fairy tale) and has added some minor changes to that (see: Disney and the Grimm brothers tales, which in turn were recorded in Germany from old ladies) and has proceeded to restrict the further reproduction of the derived work.

The "truthiness" factor of anything published in Newsweek lies somewhere between Mother Goose and the Brothers Grimm.

More fully: "Contrary to claims appearing on the internet, Professor Grimm’s work was not under formal review nor had he been given any notice of dismissal.

I t is worth noting that only one of those three 2012 works uses the term "snow white" (in the title) and they prefix it with "Grimm's [Snow White]" which automatically counters any claim by Disney that Disney's trademark is being appropriated.

Discussions included talking about the best place for him to do his science, both inside Imperial and outside, and, with Professor Grimm’s permission, his line manager made enquiries about opportunities on his behalf." So this may still be a situation of pressure being brought to bear, just in some manner other than via formal review.
