You can copyright a duck?
------------------------
Probably not,

Garth Brooks holds a copyright on the letter "G" and he defends it aggressively. Glenn Beck found out the hard way.

Trademark, not copyright.

And there are over 1000 trademark registrations and active applications for the letter G, many with a particular style or logo design.

So no one owns the letter. Perhaps Garth owns a particular logo for broadcast entertainment services, and Glenn used a similar logo for similar services.

Bu my Google search can’t find a single legitimate news story on this. Just you and some guy’s facebook page.
