Steven Crowder Files Trademark Lawsuit Against CNN And Jubilee Over Use Of “Change My Mind” In James Talarico Town Hall

Steven Crowder’s company has sued CNN and Jubilee Media, alleging that a televised town hall with Texas politician James Talarico unlawfully used Crowder’s “Change My Mind” trademark and format. The case matters because the lawsuit argues that viewers could wrongly infer Crowder’s endorsement or affiliation during coverage of a closely watched Senate race.

Filed in federal court in Fort Worth, the suit points to the town hall on 14 October, including a segment where Talarico spoke with Texans who disagreed with him and images showing the phrase “Change My Mind”. Crowder’s company seeks an injunction barring use of the mark and unspecified damages; CNN and Jubilee had not immediately commented.
