Versace: You got served!

Love / Shove blog post by Kelsey Wallace, December 12, 2008 - 5:22pm; tagged fashion, Versace, workplace discrimination, WTF?.

Versace ad

Turns out Versace is not just weird and sexually creepy in their print ads (see above), they're also weird and sexually creepy toward their employees! Or one in particular, anyway. Former Versace aide Fay Rodriguez sued the fashion giant on Wednesday for gender discrimination, saying she was forced to relay sexually explicit voicemail messages and was fired when she complained.

I love rock, and roll, and. . . Twilight?

Love / Shove blog post by Kelsey Wallace, December 3, 2008 - 1:40pm; tagged Joan Jett, Kristin Stewart, Twilight, WTF?.

Stewart and Jett

So, in the latest Twilight-related news story, teen queen Kristin Stewart is going to play rocker Joan Jett in a new Runaways biopic. Is Stewart cool enough to pull this off? Is Twilight going to take over all of our lives and turn each of us into a bland-yet-attractive teenage vampire? Weigh in after the jump!

Mary Harris Jones must be turning in her grave

Bitch on Wheels blog post by Debbie Rasmussen, August 15, 2008 - 11:54am; tagged independent magazines, independent publishing horrors, Wal-Mart, WTF?.

who needs

I've been debating whether I should post this for a few days, but I've decided I must.  

Earlier this week, I went to the Mother Jones website to find an old article I wanted to post here. But my search was interrupted when I saw an ad for Wal-Mart pop up.

An ad for Wal-Mart on the website of a magazine that calls itself:   

An independent nonprofit whose roots lie in a commitment to social justice implemented through first rate investigative reporting.

Speaking of PETA

Bitch on Wheels blog post by Debbie Rasmussen, August 12, 2008 - 1:42pm; tagged animal rights, offensive advertising, peta, WTF?.

H/T to Vegans of Color...  

PETA wants to advertise "Go vegan" message on border fence:

People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals plans today to announce an unusual marketing pitch to the U.S. government: Rent us space on the fence for billboards warning illegal border crossers there is more to fear than the Border Patrol.

The billboards, in English and Spanish, would offer the caution: "If the Border Patrol Doesn't Get You, the Chicken and Burgers Will — Go Vegan."
