Democratic National Convention video editors let the now-defunct Association of Community Organizers for Reform Now (ACORN) — a group tarnished by charges of voter registration fraud and embezzling scandals, among other things — got some brand positioning in the DNC tribute for the late Sen. Ted Kennedy, D-Mass.

The name appears blurred, but the logo can be seen over Kennedy’s shoulder in the below image from the video.

You can see a larger version of the ACORN logo here.
