Everyone’s favorite anti-capitalism, pro-immigration, pro-union retailer of unflattering jersey knits is again illustrating the idiocy of the left.
American Apparel president Dov Charney is (again) involved in a sexual harassment suit and this time it is finally making it to court.
LOS ANGFELES, Calif., Jan. 17 (UPI) — Dov Charney, eccentric founder of casual fashion giant American Apparel, faces another sexual harassment trial in Los Angeles.
It’s the fourth time similar allegations have been brought against Charney — two have been settled — this time by former employee Mary Nelson, who accuses him of by using sexually explicit language and behaving in sexually inappropriate ways, the Los Angeles Times reported. The trial may begin as early as next week.
During several meetings with her — including one at his home — he was dressed only in his underwear, the suit alleges. On another occasion, according to the suit, he appeared in less.
But those events, he said, have to be understood in the context of the fashion industry.
This allegation coupled with past cases which alleged that Charney made demeaning comments to female employees suggest that Mr. Charney isn’t the saint that his company’s marketing machine would like us to believe.
It amuses me that a man that has publicly compared our current immigration to “apartheid” would marginalize his female workforce. Regardless of the industry no one is comfortable seeing an unattractive man with only his genitals covered. No number of company bikes or free healthcare can negate the unpleasantness of having to see your ugly boss nearly naked.
Recent advertising campaigns by Charney’s company ave called for a path to citizenship and fair employment for undocumented workers why not extend the same rights to your existing, American born, staff?
