JUDGE DENIES DISNEY BID; COMPANY STARTS GO.COM REBRANDING

          U.S. District Court Judge Terry Hatter Jr. denied Walt
     Disney's request for a stay of an injunction that requires
     Disney to "immediately stop using its Go.com green and
     yellow traffic light logo," according to Janet Shprintz of
     DAILY VARIETY.  Disney will be allowed to "phase out over 60
     days existing printed, film, videotape and other materials
     with the Go Network logo."  The order does require Disney
     "to remove the logo immediately from all Internet sites and
     broadcast television networks."  Disney told Hatter that the
     cost of compliance would be $40M (DAILY VARIETY, 11/17).
