Don and Marilyn Remington, both 87, were astonished to see themselves on a TV ad for GOP Rep. Mia Love — and say her campaign “stole” their images from an ad they did two years ago for her opponent, Democratic Salt Lake County Mayor Ben McAdams.
“I just laughed the first time I saw it,” Marilyn says. “But after the second, third, fourth and fifth times — and the tenth — it got old.”
So a lawyer for the Remingtons sent a letter to the Love campaign on Thursday demanding that their images be removed from the ad, contending that it breaks state law.
