P. Diddy Sells Dog Fur Jackets

Granted, Sean Combs probably had no idea that his made-in-China "high fashion" jackets were actually made of dog fur, not faux fur. But I liken this to the Kathy Lee Gifford sweat-shop story.

If you are going to put your name on something, which means you are authenticating it as a product you endorse...then you better damn well make sure that it's up to your standards. Do some background work, or better yet, pay your staff to do the background work. But apologizing later after a horrible discovery has been made just seems too little too late.

Puff Daddy very well knows what's in his clothing. You don't get to be that successful without being aware to some degree. Watch http://blog.peta.org/archives/2006/12/pdiddys_dogfur_1.php

and join me in boycotting everything P. Diddy..for the animals...
