This is why in a lot of writing names of organizations and publications often get contrasting style in the text. Name in italicized text is romanized, or the opposite.

eg:

> We now expects...

or

> We now expects...

Because... yes. It can produce some ridiculous results

You got me there. I'd put something like that in quotes!

I actually ran into that last week with a publication. Didn't have rights to a certain font's italics. Too much deliberation with design and edit. Solution ended up being single quotes. ex:

> click on ‘My Computer’
