: : Can you copyright tee-shirt sayings/slogans?

: My thought is a slogan, like a poem, can be copyrighted...infact it would be some sort of plagarizing to use someone's slogan. I write rather shot poems and would like to get them printed on tees...
: Maybe contact an attorney specializing in copyrighting.

Dear Suzy,
I do not believe slogans can be copyrighted. They may be protectable if they have a trademark significance.
