Laugh It Off: SAB the loser




T-shirt maker Laugh It Off has won its fight against South African Breweries (SAB) over its right to mock the Carling Black Label brand, more. Justice Albie Sachs, said: "The evidence indicates that everybody concerned with the t-shirts, whether producer or consumer, knew that they were intended to poke fun at the dominance exercised by brand names in our social and cultural life." The t-shirt reads: "Black Labour White Guilt, Africa's lusty lively exploitation since 1652, no regard given worldwide"
