Lands’ End Apologizes for Featuring Feminist Gloria Steinem in Spring Catalog

Lands' End quickly backpedaled this week from an association with feminist Gloria Steinem after hearing complaints from customers and the publication of an article by a pro-life news agency. With customers taking to the company's Facebook page to voice objections centered on Steinem's support for abortion rights, Lands' End on Tuesday removed a feature on Steinem from its website. Company CEO Federica Marchionni interviewed Steinem to kick off the Lands' End "Legend Series" on "individuals who have made a difference in both their respective industries and the world at large."
