I could see it as stealing if the triangle was drawn the sam and used the same colors, but it clearly is an original take on the triangle. I'll bet even the meaning of the triangle is different. All Auckland City Council would have to say to defend it is something like... "It's not a triangle, it's a tent." Triangle Television's Logo looks like a Doritos chip as far as I'm concerned.

Even if they shared similar features they are just stylized triangles. I don't believe anyone will be shopping for televisions and find themselves in the middle of a city council meeting any time soon. I think they both ripped off AOL.

The logos both have strokes that form a triangle, and they're both blue, but how many other logos can you find like that? My guess is hundreds. Not to mention that the Triangle Television logo is pretty ugly compared to the Auckland City Council version. It’s sad when designs like this are “forced” to change.

It looks unfinished and unbalanced. I disagree with that ruling. Does Triangle have rights to every triangle made now? Triangle’s logo sucks! It looks unfinished and unbalanced.
