15 of the 25 'prospective corporate sponsors' of the Straight Pride parade are joining Netflix in refusing involvement, and some are threatening legal action

Bank of America's logo is currently crossed out on the Super Happy Fun America list of prospective corporate sponsors.

The bank did not respond to Business Insider's request for comment.

Ben & Jerry's said they're aware their logo is being used on the website. Super Happy Fun America reached out to the Ben & Jerry's Foundation — the ice cream chain's grassroots activism nonprofit — to ask it to be a sponsor, but the Straight Pride organizers did not reach out to the corporation itself, the company said.

Even if they did reach out, Ben & Jerry's would decline, spokesperson Laura Peterson wrote in an email to Business Insider.

"We are not a prospective sponsor, and we have asked them to remove our logo," Peterson said. "Our values have not changed over the past 40 years, and we have been very clear about what we support: marriage equality, LGBTQ rights, and 'Love is Love.'"

Best Buy did not receive a sponsorship request from the Straight Pride organizers, spokesperson Boua Xiong told Business Insider.

"Even if we did we would never sponsor anything like this," Xiong said. "We deeply believe that diversity and inclusion is not just a good thing to do, it's the right thing to do."

Camping World, which sells RV campers, told Business Insider that the organizers did not reach out to the company about sponsoring Straight Pride, and that Camping World is not considering being a sponsor for the event.

Facebook did not respond to Business Insider's request for comment.

Gillette's logo has been crossed out on the organizers' website. In its blog post, Super Happy Fun America wrote: "Gillette has declined to sponsor the parade. That was a close shave."

JPMorgan Chase's logo is crossed out on the list of prospective corporate sponsors. According to Super Happy Fun America's blog post, the investment bank filed a "fraudulent violation complaint" against the organizers, which resulted in web hosting service Bluehost taking down the Super Happy Fun America website.

The organizers' website now uses "a new host that respects free speech," Super Happy Fun America says.

"Given their hateful response, we are withdrawing our offer to sponsor the parade," Super Happy Fun America wrote in its blog post.

Business Insider reported Thursday that Netflix declined to sponsor the Straight Pride parade.

In a scathing email to Super Happy Fun America, Netflix wrote that the organization was not allowed to use streaming service's logo in any of its materials, and that it viewed doing so as "spreading misinformation about Netflix's involvement or sponsorship" of the parade.

"You should know that we're unafraid of bullies," Netflix wrote in the email, which parade organizers posted on its website. "Our legal department is here, it's queer, and it's telling you to steer clear."

Nike declined to comment to Business Insider.

Instead, the company's spokesperson pointed us toward Nike's BETRUE initiative to support LGBTQ organizations and its purpose message, which includes: "Equality isn't a game. But achieving it will be our greatest victory. Until we all win."

State Street has not responded to Business Insider's request for comment.

TripAdvisor said the organizers' claims they're "in negotiations" with the travel company to sponsor the event are "completely false."

TripAdvisor sent a cease-and-desist letter Friday morning to Super Happy Fun America. In a copy of the letter provided to Business Insider, TripAdvisor ordered organizers to remove any mentions of the company's name, trademark, and logo from its website within 24 hours.

The letter includes at least 15 references to songs that are commonly denoted as pride anthems within the LGBTQ community.

"You Need To Calm Down - you are not sponsored by, associated or affiliated with TripAdvisor in any way, and thus, your use of our marks could confuse the public as to an affiliation with TripAdvisor," the cease-and-desist letter says. "Have A Little Respect and remove those statements. TripAdvisor and I Will Survive without being associated with your event. There is nothing Vogue or acceptable about making false claims about others merely to support your own cause. If I Could Turn Back Time, I would tell you not to use our name in the first place."

"We have not and will not have any discussions with them," a Tumblr spokesperson wrote in an email to Business Insider. "We sent them a cease & desist notice for using our intellectual property without approval."

Twitter has not responded to Business Insider's request for comment.
