IMPORTANT:
This video clearly falls under the category of "Nominative use" a.k.a "Trademark Fair Use" under the (1992) U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit.
There is no other way to report the news without using the company name. And there was no suggestion of endorsement
or sponsorship.
UPDATE: Lawsuit from the District Attorney:
