Registered trade marks in the background of street location shots at DVinfo.net

I have a couple of street location shots in a documentary that I'm currently editing, and I'm wondering whether I need to blur out any registered trade marks incidentally included. As it happens, both location shots incidentally show the Disney logo (no I don't have a thing about Disney). One location shot in a small Arkansas town includes a banner that advertises a local production of Disney's "High School Musical" (it has a small Disney logo and the words "High School Musical" look stylized) and the other location shot is on Hollywood Blvd, and the Disney Store front is visible. Any ideas?
Thanks
Greg
