EDITOR IN CHIEF: Go ask Copy.
BUSINESS EDITOR: Hey Copy, what's the style for "
Power Ranger"?
COPY EDITOR: There's no
stylebook entry for "Power Ranger." I think the most appropriate synonym in the stylebook is "superhero."
BUSINESS EDITOR: Seriously, let's ignore the stylebook on this one.
EDITOR IN CHIEF: What? We never ignore the stylebook.
BUSINESS EDITOR: Even when it's stupid?
EDITOR IN CHIEF: We don't need a stylebook to tell us what makes sense. We need a stylebook to tell us what doesn't.
BUSINESS EDITOR: But "Superhero" is a shared copyright of Marvel and
Time Warner. That's going to get us in some shit.
COPY EDITOR: I think "Power Rangers" is a copyright of the
Bandai corporation.
BUSINESS EDITOR: Time Warner has tougher lawyers.
COPY EDITOR: We're a newspaper. They can't sue us for that.
BUSINESS EDITOR: They're Time Warner lawyers. They can sue us for eating breakfast.
EDITOR IN CHIEF: WE ARE NOT BREAKING THE
STYLEBOOK. End of discussion.
