Michigan State University (MSU) is being sued by The Quiz Channel's owner, Floris van Pallandt, for unauthorized use of a quiz that included an image of Adolf Hitler during a football game against the University of Michigan on October 21, 2023. The lawsuit, filed in federal court, alleges copyright infringement and invasion of privacy, seeking at least $150,000 in damages. The incident, which occurred shortly after the Hamas attack on Israel, drew significant backlash and led to MSU apologizing and suspending an employee. MSU initially blamed a third-party source for the inappropriate content, but van Pallandt accuses the university of deflecting blame and not taking responsibility for their actions. MSU has since stated it will implement stronger screening procedures for videoboard content to prevent similar incidents in the future.
