I kind of side with the gas companies on this one. They objected to their real names and logos being used to market a parody site. Their companies weren't being parodied; they were simply added to the site intact (to lure search engines to list their site? to add legitimacy?)
The article doesn't touch this issue, they just mock the gas companies. Not a real article, just another slam piece couched as journalism.
- chmod775 2y ago> Their companies weren't being parodied They obviously were. It's a parody of carbon offsets.
- JoeAltmaier 2y agoObviously they weren't. As you so correctly point out, it was a parody of a government program.
