Welcome Home Lassie!

Lassie has returned from "across the pond"! After a few years in UK, Classic/Entertainment Rights has been sold to a US Company- Boomerang Media. The owners of Boomerang are no strangers to Lassie. In fact, they were with Lassie at Broadway Video back in 1995 when lassie.net first started, and Jerry Seinfeld's wife Jessica was our first contact. They stayed with Lassie up until the UK sale but saw the opportunity to bring Lassie back home under Boomerang. This is great news for Lassie and Lassie fans that have been hoping for new activities for Lassie. Stay right here at lassie.net for all the latest news on the official Lassie!

Lassie Comes Home - Lassie rights revert to heirs of Eric Knight, or do they? What rights?
Shown at left- Winifred Knight Mewborn (on right),daughter of Eric Knight and Betsy Mewborn Cowan (on left),granddaughter, at Pomona Pet Expo 1999 with Lassie 8

On Friday July 11, 2008 the press was full of reports that the rights for Lassie had reverted to the heirs of Eric Knight after this court judgement. . These reports left the incorrect impression for the layman that Classic Media had lost the Lassie trademark and that it had reverted to the Knight family. But Copyright and Trademark are different animals. Classic Media's larger rights were never at issue, and an agreement with the counterparty to the case has brought a complete resolution of the matter.

Classic Media's official statement explains:
"With respect to the recent ruling regarding Lassie®, Classic Media is disappointed by the Ninth Circuit's decision.  The case centered on a matter of non-exclusive copyright interest, however, we would note that while this narrow point of law was before the Court, Classic Media's trademarks and its rights to create, distribute and merchandise the Lassie-brand were never at issue.

Further, we are pleased to announce that the parties have independently reached complete resolution of all matters in the case, with Classic Media owning the exclusive 100% copyright in Lassie.  Classic Media looks forward to continuing to bring the adventures of the world's most famous dog to audiences everywhere for generations to come."
