Nike Apologizes to Dischord Records
Word from: Mordy

Nike stole Minor Threat's iconic album cover for a Nike advertisement last week, and has finally come clean today and apologized. The appropriation of a classic symbol of anti-establishment has no place in a major capitalist company's advertising campaign. That said, it might be much more appropriate to use the image for another, slightly different kind of rebellion.

(My apologies for anyone's good taste I might have offended with this post.)
