Old Navy Discontinues Toddler T-Shirt Following Online Outrage

The idea of toddlers sporting what some considered anti-artist propaganda lit up the Internet with incensed comments from consumers directed at seller Old Navy. The offending infant/toddler T-shirt features the phrase, “Young Aspiring Artist,” with the last word, “artist,” crossed out, and titles like “Astronaut” and “President” written underneath. The backlash prompted the Gap GPS -1.20%’s bargain spin-off chain to discontinue the item.
