Tonight on 60 Minutes, they are doing a segment about the store and they discussed their hiring practices. Former employees spoke out their firing and against the "image" the store is promoting.

I just want to say that watching this story was worth it just to hear Morley Safer say "hooters." They showed the students who are enacting the lawsuit and pretty much went over everything we've discussed on the A&F threads on here.

Some of the "devil's advocate" examples they gave are that ethnic restaurants have mostly only people of that ethnicity working there, there are no ugly models (I definitely could argue on that one, but I digress) only people with big racks work at Hooters, and there are very few white people working at FUBU. I thought those were all REALLY reaching and that A&F is definitely guilty of racism.
