They Take $15 Million, Bite the Hand

Back in ancient history, Froedtert gladly accepted a $15MM gift from Tim Michels.

That was then; this is now.  They're suing him.

Froedtert claims that they're a non-profit, therefore they're in jeopardy when Michels uses their logo in his ad.

So they're suing him.

But there's a very interesting graf here:

 ...The lawsuit says the campaign responded to Froedtert's request by offering to "blur out" the trademark in its political advertisement. The lawsuit claims Michels for Governor, Inc. also offered to stop running the advertisement entirely after Oct. 23. However, the campaign allegedly then withdrew the offers...

There's more to the story than Froedtert is telling.  And you can bet that Froedtert's motive has more to do with Michels' politics than their lily-white virginal reputation.
