Heat Turning Up On Apple After Nightline Broadcast

The leader of one of the protest groups pressuring Apple to improve conditions for workers in the Chinese factories that assemble Apple products, says last night’s ABC News Nightline broadcast did nothing to dampen efforts by her organization, SumOfUs.org, to protest Apple’s practices...ABC Nightline’s Bill Weir had been asking Apple to shoot inside its Chinese factories for years. At the same time that it granted FLA permission to audit most of its supply factories, Apple finally reached out to Weir and invited him to shoot at Foxconn.
