Default American Apparel founder Dov Charney ousted--it's about damn time

I also listened to an NPR piece on the radio today, two years ago his company was borrowing from investors at 14%; today his company's stock trades at less than $1; not to mention his clothes are way overpriced, and just bc it's made in LA does not mean it's sweat shop free. For me years being in the fashion industry, I know that everyone outsourced to contractors, and there is no way to control who the sub contractors are, and if they are a sweat shop.

Oh yeah, AA was raided recently with many illegal workers.
