A third option -- and one I consider likeliest -- is that PKNY's proposals to resolve the issue were unsatisfactory to Pusser's. The latter, let's face it, by virtue of size and resources at their command, were in a position to dictate. I'm not convinced that (admittedly this is hypothetical) had this gone to trial, it would have been a slam-dunk for Pusser's. But Pusser's is able to marshal legal firepower to an extent PKNY cannot. To me the question "Is what Pusser's did legal?" sets the bar too low. Of course what they did is legal, and perfectly permissible. I don't think anyone is arguing that. My opinion is that meeting the standard of legality is insufficient for me to look favorably on Pusser's...which is now in a serious PR nightmare similar to Rep. Weiner's, of getting caught flatfooted and compounding the problem by responding in what many perceive as an arrogant fashion. So, still no Pusser's for me. |
