Defending your brand...against the devil?




Procter & Gamble has won a lawsuit to the order of $19M USD against 4 people who were spreading rumors that the brand supported satanic worship. These folks intended to damage P&G's brand because they worked for a rival company.

We've all heard the urban myth about the P&G logo, but it is comforting to know that in this day and age of people saying just about whatever they want about brands--especially online--that some brand stewards will defend their brand equity and fight to protect their brands against slander.

Way to go P&G!
