Urban Outfitters: That Dumb
Business 2.0 magazine says that Urban Outfitters' decision to sell Ghettopoly was the third-dumbest business decision of 2003.
They're still pretty stupid, though — selling t-shirts endorsing anti-Semitic stereotypes is their most recent misstep.
Is this the same company that had the anti-Sino t-shirt that featured Chinese men doing laundry with the slogan, "Two Wongs Make it a White?"
